Alan Wake 2 DLC: The Lake House Set to Launch Soon
Exciting news for fans of the popular video game, Alan Wake 2 – the highly anticipated DLC, The Lake House, is rumored to be launching very soon. While the official release date has not been announced yet, a recent leak hints that it could be happening in less than a week.
Leaked Release Date
A keen-eyed Twitter user, PlotPointsYT, discovered a potential release date for the upcoming Alan Wake 2 DLC, The Lake House. According to a listing on the EB Games store page, the DLC is set to launch on October 22, 2024, for all platforms including PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Confirmation and Speculation
Earlier in July, Remedy had confirmed that the Alan Wake 2 DLC, The Lake House, would be released in October 2024, but without specifying the exact date. Interestingly, the physical edition of the game is also scheduled for release on October 22, which aligns with the potential DLC launch date.
It was expected that the release date for The Lake House DLC would be officially unveiled during the upcoming Xbox Partner Preview event, where it is anticipated to be one of the main attractions. With October 2024 drawing to a close, the timing seems perfect for the big reveal, although the leak may have taken away some of the surprise element.
What to Expect
According to Remedy’s description, The Lake House is a mysterious facility located near Cauldron Lake, where a government organization conducts secretive research until things take a sinister turn. Players will delve into the Lake House and navigate through an adventure where reality and the supernatural collide in the Pacific Northwest.
The Lake House serves as the second expansion for Alan Wake 2, following the first expansion titled Night Springs. Night Springs consists of three smaller episodes inspired by the game’s in-universe show, featuring a mix of eccentric characters and bizarre scenarios.
Accessing the DLC
Players can gain access to both Night Springs and The Lake House expansions by purchasing the expansion pass for $20 through the Deluxe Upgrade. Those who have already bought the Deluxe Edition can enjoy Night Springs now and can look forward to playing The Lake House upon its expected release next Tuesday.
