Shame it didn’t do well, I thought it was great.

    Part of the reason why it hasn’t done great is because its an Epic exclusive right? If they would have released on Steam they’d make tons more sales

      Unfortunately, it’s not just an Epic Games exclusive, it’s actually published by Epic Games. Which means it probably won’t ever come to Steam.

      The rest of the Alan Wake franchise (and the Control franchise, including the upcoming Control 2) are published by 505 Games or Remedy themselves, so those all get Steam releases.

        The Alan Wake 1 remaster is also published by Epic

        Extremely unlikely. AW2 was funded by Epic, not just paid off to be a timed exclusive like Control (which was published by 505).

        That means Epic decides where it gets distributed.
