[@denisruskin348]

Can we all take a moment and appreciate how Remedy connects their games in a shared universe. This is such a rarity.

[@Ghost_Text]

More so how all the powers, their rules and limits are improvised from one source whether its time/space rifts in Quantum Break or paranormal dimensions in this franchise. Feels more original than RPG spells and Superhero fare.

[@kdscool1536]

This is not a rarity at all, everyone tries to do that after MCU success in the movie industry, in fact it's getting tiresome and overused.

[@denisruskin348]

[@blues3531]

Control from 2019 currently has the best implemented example of the benefits of extreme uses of ray tracing. AW2 looks like its going to continue that. That snippet in the subway where he flicks the lights on looks near photo-real thanks to RT ambient occlusion.

[@Marco-cl9pb]

One of the first games with DLSS 3.5 for improved raytracing image quality

[@penyuwan]

[@w1nch3ster1]

The Northlight engines destruction is what makes me such a fan of it in regards to Control. I'm hoping it's implemented here for Alan Wake as well. Can't wait.

Fingers crossed that this one contains just as many Twin Peaks references, if not more.

Thank you Remedy for fighting through the darkness for this long and win, and thank you Control for bringing hope back towards the resurrection of Alan Wake.🎉

I've played the first part many times and here we go 2 part. Amazing game!

[@alexzief-comiccolorist3560]

the last thing in the video sounds like the hiss from control

[@darkoale3299]

It probably is.

[@johanmadrigal9592]

So this means Mr. Scratch is FINALLY back!!!

[@sanafarukhsk6225]

Now I'm a little convinced that in previous trailer when Saga asks "What's your name?" to Alan, it is not him, its Mr Scratch. His evil double. Glad to see Alan's shirt make a comeback from American Nightmare. Added this comment again because my comments are getting deleted.

[@dutchvanderlinde2002]

Yes but remember Thomas Zane also looks like Wake

[@GamingFromCanadaCDN]

1:07 reminds me of Control when someone else talks through the hotline

[@dutchvanderlinde2002]

That's because Alan Wake created the FBC and other things by rewriting reality

[@kaiju-dr5qn]

That is because it is from the same company. Plus they did Quantum Break as well. Not too sure if they are in the same universe.
