Remedy Entertainment has rolled out Alan Wake 2 update 10, packing over 100 fixes, including platform-specific ones.
Numerous patches have been released since the game's global digital launch late last month, and today, the development read deplored another major patch, fixing issues aplenty. Players will be happy to learn that this patch fixes some critical progress issues, including a progression issue in the Scratch (A New Plan) mission and misbehaving in the Espresso Express in Local Girl (Coffee World). In addition, this update includes additional polish to the game as well as general bug fixes. Also included are increased ammo and health drop rates from containers in the Cynthia boss fight. As for the platform-specific fixes, this update resolves the annoying issue on the Xbox Series X|S that caused auto to be missing or to be cut out. On PlayStation 5, this update addresses an issue where using Share Play would, in rare instances, crash the game. Also, it fixes some wrong audio states towards the end of the game on Sony's console.
