Alan Wake 2’s The Lake House Expansion Is Its Swansong, And A Bridge To Control’s Sequel


This article was originally published on link to post

Debuting today, Alan Wake 2‘s second and final expansion, The Lake House, arrives almost exactly one year after the base game arrived. After waiting 13 years for the sequel, it feels too soon to already say goodbye to this chapter of the Alan Wake saga. Thankfully, in the wide, weird world of the Remedy Connected Universe, The Lake House isn’t so much a conclusion as it is a continuation. Just as the studio used Control’s second expansion to build the runway for Alan Wake 2, The Lake House feels like an exciting lead-in to Control’s announced sequel, and perhaps even to its multiplayer spin-off, FBC: Firebreak.

For those who already played the base game, The Lake House fully explores a mystery only hinted at previously. A Federal Bureau of Control (FBC) outpost, The Lake House, has gone dark, and Agent Kieran Estevez, introduced during the main story, is the responding agent and thus a playable character for the first time. For those who finished Control’s second expansion, AWE, the events of The Lake House were hinted at in the final scene of the DLC, when Jesse Faden notices a distress signal that an altered world event is set to occur in
