Alan Wake 2 Skips Steam, Sweeney Confirms

By IsaacMar 14,2025

A Reddit user recently received a succinct, albeit disappointing, response from Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney regarding the availability of Remedy's Alan Wake 2 on Steam. The user's simple inquiry about a Steam release date was met with a definitive "no," leaving them to explore alternative purchasing options, such as Xbox.

Alan Wake 2's exclusivity to the Epic Games Store is notable, given Epic Games' dual role as publisher and co-financier of the game's development alongside Remedy. While Remedy has expressed satisfaction with the game's sales performance aligning with projections and praised the collaboration with Epic, they've also confirmed that future titles will be self-published, ensuring broader platform availability, including Steam. Interestingly, despite positive sales reports, Alan Wake 2 has yet to turn a profit over a year after its release.
