Alan Wake developer Remedy has revealed that they are yet to finalize the climax of the game. Remedy Writer San Lake wants Alan Wake’s story to go beyond the realms of it’s episodic nature for the sake of a fleshed out story.
In an interview with CVG, San Lake said,
We really feel there needs to be a satisfying conclusion [to the Alan Wake story]. But at the same time, it needs to end in kind of a cliffhanger and we need to open doors for a larger story beyond this one.
How Alan Wake as a whole will end? We have ideas and have mapped out the storyline quite far, but time will tell. I’m sure it will live a life of its own and things will change along hte way. We certainly would like to do more, but ultimately if people want more, they will get more.
Alan Wake is scheduled to release exclusively on the Xbox 360 on May 13 in North America and May 21 in Europe. The PC version, earlier expected to release a few months after the console version was cancelled by Microsoft at the X10 event held last week.
