One of the highlights of this afternoon’s PlayStation Showcase was the gameplay demo of alan wake 2long-awaited sequel to a cult classic, from the seventh generation of consoles, whose release date was also scheduled for October 17.
What was left unsaid at the event was that Remedy made the decision to release the game, only, in digital formata decision that at another time would have been controversial and even today, could be considered unusual for a game single player high profile.
That said, Remedy offers a fairly logical and even fan-friendly explanation:
A large number of people have migrated to the digital format exclusively. You can buy a Sony PlayStation 5 without a disc drive, and Microsoft’s Xbox Series S is a digital-only console. It is not uncommon to release modern games only in digital format. In second place, not releasing a disc version helps keep the price of the game at $50.99 / £59.99 and the PC version at $49.99 / £49.99. Ultimately, we didn’t want to release a disc product that would require a download to play. We don’t think this provides a great experience.
