Exciting news for fans of Alan Wake 2 as Remedy Entertainment has officially announced the addition of the highly anticipated Photo Mode in an upcoming free update expected 'somewhere around spring' this year. The survival-horror game Alan Wake 2 garnered critical acclaim upon its release last year, even scooping multiple awards at The Game Awards 2023. Post-launch, Remedy has continuously provided updates for the game, with a recent major one introducing a New Game Plus mode.
The introduction of the Alan Wake 2 New Game Plus mode arrived with an update named The Final Draft, offering fans fresh content and a new ending to explore, reigniting the adventure for players. Just when fans thought Remedy had concluded its series of significant free updates for Alan Wake 2, news of another update slated for later this spring surfaced.
Expressing gratitude on Twitter for the breathtaking screenshots shared by fans of the Pacific Northwest and The Dark Place, the primary settings in Alan Wake 2, Remedy teased the upcoming Photo Mode, enabling players to unleash their creativity further. The feature is set to debut in the forthcoming spring update, expected to drop between March 19 and June 20, 2024, allowing fans to enhance their gaming experience with Alan Wake 2 in the next few months.

While players have relished the free updates for Alan Wake 2 from Remedy post-launch, anticipation is mounting for details on the premium DLC expansions of the game. Information on the Alan Wake 2 DLC, known as Night Springs and The Lake House, has been kept under wraps by Remedy. However, it is anticipated that more insights into the Alan Wake 2 DLC will be unveiled later this year.
It will be intriguing to observe whether the combination of free updates and paid DLC will attract more players to Alan Wake 2. Despite the critical acclaim, Alan Wake 2 is yet to cover its development costs, despite being Remedy's fastest-selling game, with over 1.3 million units sold to date.
