Alan Wake 2 To Be Xbox 360 Exclusive
Any sequel to this year’s Xbox 360 exclusive Alan Wake would have to remain an Xbox 360 exclusive.
Oskari Hakkinen, the franchise development head for Remedy Entertainment revealed that although Alan Wake 2 has yet to be given the greenlight, if and when the sequel does get the go-ahead, it will be released exclusively on the Xbox 360 and possibly PC.
Talking to Eurogamer, Hakkinen said…
“Microsoft put a lot of beef behind the title for it to be an exclusive for the 360. They feel it’s an important title for their portfolio. It fits into their portfolio among other games like Gears of War, Halo and Forza. They think of their first-party games as a package and a portfolio for the 360. My understanding is we have a great fit in that portfolio as well.”
Hakkinen also revealed that his team is working hard on Alan Wake DLC…
“We’re working full steam ahead here. We’re a team of around about 50 people. We’ve still got plenty to do. Being in this launch phase at the moment, we haven’t had a chance to get out to Redmond, Microsoft Game Studios, and discuss anything further of how we move on. But I don’t see any reason why we wouldn’t continue with Microsoft with a full-blown sequel for Alan Wake. We definitely want to do it. We have great ideas for it. There’s certainly a want, and that want is I believe from both sides. Right now I can’t confirm anything.”
Alan Wake is out now only on Xbox 360.
