Remedy has released Title Update 1.2.3 for Alan Wake 2. According to the release notes, this patch fixes a number of bugs that plagued the main game and its latest DLC. So, let’s take a closer look at what it fixes.
Patch 1.2.3 fixes an issue where players could control agent Estevez during her reaction after teleporting to the Oceanview Motel, causing her to do some weird yoga. It also fixes an issue where the holstered shotgun would hover when the Classic Alan Wake Outfit was equipped.
Title Update 1.2.3 also fixes adaptive triggers so that they do not cause continuous vibrations after equipping trauma pads or carrying a power core. Plus, it fixes the ‘Shape of a Man’ achievement/trophy not unlocking.
From what I’ve seen, this update does not pack any performance improvements. So, don’t expect the game to perform better than before. I also did not see any visual or performance improvements for its Ray Tracing or Path Tracing effects.
Alan Wake 2 came out on PC one year ago. The game was published by Epic Games and there are still no plans to release it on Steam. And, to be honest, I don’t expect it to ever hit Valve’s service. Epic Games will most likely keep it as an exclusive for its store. It sucks but hey, it is what it is. Let’s at least hope that Remedy will not repeat the same mistake with its next title.
Like always, EGS will download this update the next time you launch its client. Below you can also find its complete changelog.

Finished the Lake House over the weekend. It was alright and I think it mostly shows to solidify where they plan to to take the universe they are creating. The final fight was very obnoxious to do on the hard difficulty with just 2 health packs so I'm glad they are adjusting that for people. I was just spamming dodge through the bloody disoriented screen trying to gauge how far the doctor and ghoul were before i tried to get some shots off. I'm still just shocked how now a year later the game doesnt have native FSR 3 Frame Generation.
Nvidia invested $ into this game.
true but I thought they all had agreed to stop “that” last year. That is probably the biggest reason though.
"Plus, it fixes the ‘Shape of a Man’ achievement"
Well duh! Could've fixed 'Shape of that Woman' to a Voluptuous Sensation to make up that development cost though.

Alan Woke 2 – Sales are still LOW

There's a new fork of Ryujinx with improvements available on Github. Search for "GreemDev Ryujinx".
Alan can't write Johns Lizard back into being alive!
im not going to pretend im never gonna buy this game, but i will pirate it until its like 3 dollars, im never giving them my money for full price ever again, Remedy is dead to me.
These type of self reporting comments are always amusing to me. Too cheap to want to pay for the game so let's make up some reason to legitimize my piracy: I know! I'll jump on the anti-woke bandwagon and claim that Remedy is DEAD to me! That way people surely will understand why I'm pirating the game! Nevermind that saying a company is "dead" to me would generally mean that I'm totally done with their products and intend on never partaking in the product ever again. Surely nobody will actually notice that my one comment will contradict itself. I'll be able to talk sh*t about the game and enjoy it for free at the same time so who cares even if they DO notice my contradictory comments and actions!!!!
nah
This is the best woke game I played. Its a very good game being woke.
No changes on monkey fur?
Not downloading, then!
They'll release it on Steam when they get hurting for sales! Believe it! It will happen probably sooner than later.
