"Many times it seemed the game would never get made": Alan Wake 2 is "finally complete" thanks to its new DLC, but even its director says "no one knows about the future"

Alan Wake 2.

As work on Alan Wake 2 wraps up with the arrival of its final DLC, The Lake House, writer and director Sam Lake describes the "long and winding road" to the award-winning horror game sequel's completion.

Speaking in a recent post online, the developer first discusses a song he wrote for the DLC - End of an Era. "End of an Era, the final song of the final DLC chapter of Alan Wake 2, beautifully composed by Petri Alanko and sung by Amelia Jones," says Lake. "I wrote the lyrics thinking about this long journey, from 2010 on, trying to get the sequel made, being very aware that in life nothing is guaranteed."
