Alan Wake

Remedy respond to TGS 2008 showing rumours.

 

 

The recent news on Alan Wake making the rounds was the old Microsoft Vista promotion competition which was held early 2007. In this promotion the winner of the competition would have their face digitized and shown in the game.

 

The winner who goes by the nickname “duffty” on the Alan Wake forums posted about his experience over a year ago on the 2nd of July 2007:

 

“I want to thank remedy for showing myself and my mate round their offices a couple of weeks back. They are exactly what you expect.. friendly,hard working, fun, finnish, and bloody clever paople. Thanks again mika and the team who gave us their valuable time.

ps. use my ugly face as you wish. mark”

 

Recently this promotion resurfaced and was posted on some major gaming news sites and blogs and caused quite a stir due to a comment in the promotion which many people confused as confirmation that Alan Wake will be shown at the 2008 Tokyo Game Show. The comment was “Let the games begin with a trip to Finland to be digitally mastered into Alan Wake’s world, then jet off to Tokyo to the 2008 Tokyo Games Show to be on the scene and on the screen!”

 

Markus Maki, Director of Development at Remedy Games, recently posted squashing this rumour stating:

 

“The Microsoft Vista promotion referring to TGS took place in 2007, and is old news - we’ve had the winner over for taking the pictures already.

 

Sorry for the confusion and possible disappointment, but this was not an annoucement that Wake would be shown at TGS 2008. Remedy’s team is just getting back from a bit of holiday and we haven’t had time to chat with Microsoft on upcoming shows/showings yet.”

I can safely say that Remedy is hard at work on Alan Wake and when they are ready to show information you’ll see it here. The game is not cancelled or abandonware.

 

For all currently known information you can check our extensive collection of quotes in our Alan Wake FAQ which is updated whenever new information is confirmed by Remedy.

Alan Wake Development Hasn't Gone Smoothly (But Is Still Going!)

 

Alan Wake! We miss you! You showed your face, got us all excited, then buggered off and haven't been seen for months. That kind of business normally leads to speculation that a game's been canned. Speculation Remedy want to dispel immediately, with a post on the game's official boards saying:

 

...we're still here and working hard on getting Alan Wake for you to enjoy. Sure, we've been in development for a long time and if everything had gone perfectly smoothly there probably would be a game out for you guys to play already. But designing a completely new game can be hard, and sometimes you need to take a detour to find the best route forward.

 

We understand. If this post had gone perfectly smoothly I'd be ending this with a quip about prolonged development schedules, instead of just leaving you hanging awkwardly.
