Remedy Entertainment’s second expansion for Alan Wake 2, The Lake House, is out now for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. Players control Kiran Estevez, an agent for the Federal Bureau of Control, who investigates a “crack”at the Cauldron Lake facility in Bright Falls.

After the Marmonts “let the lake in” as part of some experiments, The Dark Place has seeped into reality. The premise will sound familiar to those who played the base game, and sure enough, The Lake House occurs chronologically near the beginning. While it becomes available in “Scratch,” you can start it directly from the main menu.

Alongside the expansion, Remedy has released the Anniversary Update for free to all players. It ranges between 15 to 20 GB for download and includes various quality-of-life features, including a Gameplay Assist Menu for enabling infinite ammo, invulnerability, quick turn, and more. You can even turn actions like the Lightshifter, weapon charging, healing, and more into tapping actions instead of holding.

The Lake House and Anniversary Update aren’t the end of support for Alan Wake 2. Remedy recently detailed PS5 Pro enhancements for when the console launches on November 7th. Head here for more details.
