The highly anticipated Alan Wake 2 is almost here, and reviews for the game seem to be extremely positive. Developer Remedy Entertainment has just put out a behind-the-scenes video for the game that goes through the inspirations and the process of crafting Alan Wake 2‘s horror elements.

The video juggles perspectives between developers, sound engineers, artists, and writers as each of them provide insights on how they went about creating the horror in Alan Wake 2.
