However, the 2019 third-person shooter Control makes these connections far more explicit, with the plot of the game and its expansions directly tying into the events of Alan Wake. Most of Remedy's past projects, including the first two Max Payne titles and the Xbox-exclusive shooter Quantum Break, are tied together through subtle Easter eggs and references. While it will be a direct sequel to the first game, Alan Wake 2 will also be part of the Remedy Entertainment Connected Universe. Sam Lake reveals that Alan Wake 2 will stay fresh by exploring both the new horror genre and new emotional depths of the titular character, with these two concepts being intimately linked. The video also comes packaged with some Alan Wake 2 concept art, which shows off a variety of the game's atmospheric locations along with a disturbing witch-like enemy. Game Director Sam Lake explains that development of the terrifying sequel is going well, but to maintain momentum the studio will not be creating a trailer or demo for release over the summer.

Until an official gameplay trailer or demo, fans can only imagine how Alan Wake 2 will use survival horror to forge the franchise's next chapter. While few firm facts have been officially revealed about the sequel, Game Director Sam Lake has confirmed that it will retain the third-person perspective used in most of Remedy Entertainment's past titles. However, Alan Wake 2 will apparently expand upon the first game's dark themes and tone with intense survival horror gameplay. While Alan Wake certainly has elements of supernatural horror, at its core the game is an action-adventure first-person shooter with some survival elements.
