Alan Wake 2 Receives Patch Update 1.16
4 min read
Alan Wake 2, the critically acclaimed psychological horror game developed by Remedy Entertainment, has received a new patch update titled 1.16. This update comes with several important fixes to enhance the gaming experience for players.
The patch addresses a few issues that have been reported by the community. One of the most significant fixes is the missing Lighthouse keys after opening the last Cult Stash in Cauldron Lake. This bug has been a source of frustration for many players, and the update finally resolves it.
Another issue that has been addressed is the inability of players to exit interactable notes and containers, such as Nursery Rhymes or the Shotgun Puzzle in the Convenience Store. This bug prevented players from progressing in the game, and the patch now allows them to exit these interactables smoothly.
Moreover, Saga’s crossbow will now stay in the Shoebox if put in there. Previously, the crossbow would appear on her back even if it was not being carried, which was an unwanted visual effect. With this update, the crossbow will only appear when it is being carried, making the game look more polished.
Unfortunately, this patch does not include any performance or optimization improvements. It has been over three and a half months since the game’s release, and Remedy has already released patches to improve performance. Therefore, the team is most likely focusing on resolving bugs and blockers at this point.
Players can expect Epic Games Store to download this update the next time they launch its client. The complete changelog for the patch is as follows:
Alan Wake 2 Patch 1.16 Release Notes
– Fixed cases where players couldn’t exit interactable notes and containers (e.g. Nursery Rhymes or the Shotgun Puzzle in the Covenience Store).
– Fixed the missing Lighthouse keys after opening the last Cult Stash in Cauldron Lake.
– Fixed Saga’s magical crossbow so that it stays in the Shoebox if put in there and does not appear on her back anymore unless carried for real.
John Papadopoulos, the founder and Editor in Chief at DSOGaming, has shared his thoughts on the patch update. He believes that while performance improvements would have been welcome, the fixes addressed in the patch are essential to enhancing the gaming experience for players.
John Papadopoulos is a PC gaming fan and highly supports the modding and indie communities. Before creating DSOGaming, he worked on numerous gaming websites. While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. He loved the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. However, the PC platform won him over consoles, mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
