Alan Wake 2 is a game that fans waited years to see released into the marketplace. It’s also a game that Remedy Entertainment was partial to seeing created. However, after going through a few other projects, the studio managed to get a sequel into the marketplace. If you’re a fan of the first game, then chances are you already played through the sequel. But if your PC was holding you back from enjoying this game, we have good news. 

The minimum system requirements to run this game were altered. It looks like the developers have continued to optimize the PC version of Alan Wake 2. We rarely see a studio announce that they have managed to lower the system requirements to enjoy their game. But Remedy Entertainment was able to pull it off, and now the game can be more accessible. If you haven’t played through the game because your PC just wasn’t up to snuff, then check out the new minimum system requirements below. 

That is the new lowered system requirements to enjoy this game on the PC platform. With that said, to see the new optimization take place, you’ll have to ensure you update the game to 1.0.16.1, which is now available on the PC platform. Of course, you should see the game updated if you’re just giving the game a download today.
