Today, Remedy released a new update for Alan Wake 2 which fixes of the reported bugs from The Lake House, as well fine-tuning certain animations and DualSense responses. The patch went live this afternoon for all platforms.
The majority of the changes fixes issues with the latest expansion, including ammo rebalances, correcting cinematic triggers, fixing localisation errors, and running maintenance on a dodgy lift. While most are quality of life improvements, if you had a certain progression-preventing bug when moving between locations, make sure to get the update on your platform.
You can read the full list of changes below or on the Alan Wake website, HERE.
PlayStation 5 (1.200.004)
Xbox Series (1.2.0.4)
PC (1.2.4)
General
- The Player can now boost the flashlight while reloading the weapon (canceling the reload in the process). YES!
Fixes
- Fixed an issue where the player was not able to shoot after a partial weapon reload
- Fixed an issue where the DualSense adaptive triggers kept on rumbling and doing the wrong thing at the wrong time
The Lake House Fixes and Improvements
- Sent in some additional resource boxes that appear right before the final boss fight, as they should in video games. Stock up!
- Fixed an issue where the opening cinematic of The Lake House was playing at the wrong time
- Fixed some shadow banding on the final The Lake House cinematic
- Fixed a rare case where the player would get stuck in the elevator when returning to Sublevel 1. While this is a realistic issue even for the FBC, this has now been deemed not a great idea for the game experience
- Added some “missing” paint onto the walls of Sublevel 4, so it no longer seems the Painted attack out of a regular grey wall. (also known as the “good thinking” fix)
- Fixed the Portuguese translation for the hint for the second computer puzzle, which gave the player the wrong information.
- Various localization fixes
- Minor fixes and stability improvements
