Alan Wake Remastered is now available for PS5 and PS4, marking the first time that the psychological horror-thriller has been released for a PlayStation console. And now, Remedy has said they’re hopeful that PlayStation gamers enjoy the game, as they tend to like narrative-focussed titles.
Speaking with GI.biz, Thomas Puha, Remedy’s Communication’s Director, also took the time to dispel the notion that single-player games are a thing of the past.
The PlayStation audience hasn’t experienced Alan Wake, and PlayStation fans have a tendency to like narrative-focused games, which is what we do. That’s not to say that there isn’t plenty of fans on the Xbox side who haven’t experienced Alan Wake, who also like single-player games.
In the last couple of years, single-players games have… I wouldn’t say they’ve come back, because they’ve never been gone, but that discussion around single-player games dying… I think we can now forget that. People love single-player games, and Alan Wake is a pretty unique narrative experience, for sure.
