"When you get Alan Wake in your hands, you can think of this as season one," Remedy's head of franchise development Oskari Hakkinen told Edge magazine. "We'll have a satisfactory and conclusive ending, but we'll leave some doors open: we've planned for a bigger story arc.
"And we've thought of DLC, which will be more of a bridge between season one and season two, should this first part be a success.
"You can think of the DLC as a Christmas special, something that will give you a different perspective on the stuff you've played in season one."
