Alan Wake was definitely one of the better games of 2010 but it was also one that was incredibly overlooked. Its poor marketing and short length led to low sales for the Xbox 360 exclusive. Luckily Alan Wake is set to get another chance with an appearance on PC next month.
Alan Wake is launching on Steam during February, with no further date announced at this time. As a nice bonus for PC players the Steam version of Alan Wake will include the full game as well as The Signal and The Writer DLC packs for no extra charge. The game can be played using mouse and keyboard or an Xbox 360 controller. Most surprising is that Alan Wake is not Games for Windows Live enabled and is instead taking full advantage of the Steam platform, meaning Steam achievements and cloud saving.
If Alan Wake is a game you overlooked when it hit consoles, or if you just want an excuse to revisit the game, it sounds like the Steam version will be the best version available. We'll keep you posted when we hear a solid release date and any pricing details.
