I loved the game, but i refuse tob buy it in Epic. Any guesses on when does the exclusivity end?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago

This is one of the games where I think epic exclusive is understandable. But, due to past and future actions I still won't buy it from epic, but will happily claim it in a future give away.

Most likely never. Unlike other exclusives, this game was entirely funded by Epic.

Unfortunate, I wonder how well it did on pc?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

it appears that Alan Wake 2 is on track to be even more popular than Control, with the 2023 sequel having sold 1.3 million units as of this month, the fastest selling Remedy game to date. "By comparison, Alan Wake 2 sold over 50% more copies and over three times more digital copies in its first two months than Control did in its first four months,"

Wow! I hadn’t really heard about it so I assumed, does it say what platform that’s for?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

All platforms combined.

That first four months wouldn’t include the steam sales which weren’t until a year later, I wonder how they compare

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Did it even get included in video card bundles to boost sales?

My brother got it with a GeForce card so yes.
