What a nice surprise! A game that has been in development for goodness knows how many years will now launch on Friday 14th May, a week before it’s original proposed date.
“Fans in Europe have been crying out to get their hands on Alan Wake since it was first announced and we’re thrilled to be able to deliver it to them early,” said Stephen McGill, Director of Xbox & Entertainment.
In this long-awaited title, exclusive to Xbox 360, players assume the role of Alan Wake, a best-selling crime writer suffering from writer’s block, who escapes to a small town only to experience the mysterious disappearance of his wife. An intense psychological thriller from Remedy, the creators of Max Payne, Alan Wake looks to raise the bar for future games, creating a true cinematic experience.
The game seems to be the Xbox 360′s answer to the Playstation 3′s Heavy Rain, and if it’s half as good, we’re in for a treat come May 14th.
