Really unusual movement that he has made Epic Games with Alan Wake 2. He has shown us a brutal trailer during the PlayStation Showcase in which he has revealed the release date, but later has revealed that we will not be able to have the game on our bookshelf.
This is due to several factors that the company has proceeded to analyze. The first of them is that “there are many players who already only use the digital format. You can buy the PS5 without a disc player or the Xbox Series S, an exclusively digital console. It is not uncommon to publish modern games only in digital format,” they explain from Epic.
Another reasoning has to do with the economic factor when it comes to keeping prices below the increases to 80 dollars that we are experiencing in this generation of consoles. “Not publishing in disc format allows us to keep the price of the game at 59.99 dollars and the PC version at 49.99 dollars,” the company argues.
Finally, Epic Games has specified that it does not want to make mistakes of the past with Alan Wake 2
In the event that we get the Deluxe edition, only digital, we will obtain the following benefits by paying 69.99 dollars on PC and 79.99 dollars on consoles:
- Expansion Pass (The Night Rises and The Lake House expansions)
- Nordic Shotgun Saga skin (as part of the Expansion Pass)
- Parliament Shotgun Alan skin
- Crimson Anorak for Saga
- Celebrity Suit for Alan
- Reflector Amulet for Saga
By reserving the title, these will be the contents that we will obtain:
- Ornate revolver aspect for Alan
- Survival Resource Pack for Saga
