New Alan Wake 2 title sequence sparks calls for TV adaptation
Alan Wake 2 has been out for a few months now, but even now, the mysteries and folding narrative of the game is perplexing fans. The game got a lot of critical love for its bizarre and freeing story structure, and it has truly earned the moniker of one of Remedy’s very best titles.
Still, there’s still plenty left to uncover beyond even the game’s Final Draft New Game+ mode, and fans are wondering what could come next in Remedy’s in-game universe tying the works of Alan Wake to the Federal Bureau of Control.
And a new fan project has shown fans exactly what they want to see next.
Fan-made Alan Wake TV intro is incredible
One fan has created an incredible TV opening credits sequence using footage from Alan Wake 2, and it has quickly convinced fans that they’re desperate for a full adaptation on the small screen.
YouTuber NV created the video, and it shows off an incredibly impressive montage of live-action footage, gameplay and artistic screenshots to give the effect of opening credits, all set on the backdrop of Old Gods of Asgard’s in-game anthem Dark Ocean Summoning.
The video is incredibly impressive, and the frenetic editing does a great job of capturing the chaotic and dark atmosphere of the game. But now, fans want more.

“This would be so awesome for a TV show of Alan Wake,” reads one comment. “Every episode showing a supernatural case and dealing with the mystery of The Dark Place. Would be so awesome to see.”
“How is this not a TV show yet?” asks another.
