Alan Wake 2 developers want to become “Europe's Naughty Dog”

Remedy Entertainment's ambition is to become a leading force in the gaming industry. Inspired by Naughty Dog, particularly their Uncharted series, Remedy aims to be "Europe's Naughty Dog," according to Alan Wake 2 director Kyle Rowley.

In a Behind The Voice podcast interview, Rowley detailed how this influence shaped Quantum Break and, subsequently, Alan Wake 2. He explicitly stated their goal: to be the European equivalent of the renowned studio.

This aspiration is evident in Alan Wake 2's cinematic presentation, praised for its stunning visuals and compelling narrative. The game's success has firmly established Remedy as a top European developer.

Remedy's vision extends beyond the horror genre. Naughty Dog's mastery of cinematic single-player experiences, exemplified by Uncharted and The Last of Us (a PlayStation cornerstone and one of history's most acclaimed franchises), serves as a clear benchmark.

Over a year post-launch, Alan Wake 2 continues receiving updates, enhancing gameplay across all platforms. These enhancements include significant optimizations for the PS5 Pro, introducing a "Balanced" graphics mode that combines the best aspects of the Performance and Quality modes.

These updates also refined Alan Wake 2's graphical settings for smoother frame rates and clearer visuals, alongside minor bug fixes impacting gameplay, particularly within the Lake House expansion.
