The highlight of the patch is undoubtedly the fix for random crashes experienced by Xbox Series X/S players, a relief for those who've been plagued by instability issues. Additionally, the update tackles a bug that prevented players from exiting interactable notes and container menus, a frustrating glitch that could halt progress in its tracks.
Perhaps most notably for those stuck in the eerie Cauldron Lake, the update resolves an issue where the Lighthouse keys failed to spawn, blocking advancement. Lastly, a visual glitch involving Saga Anderson's crossbow has been corrected, ensuring it remains in the Shoebox unless actively wielded.
This patch signifies Remedy's ongoing commitment to refining Alan Wake 2, ensuring a seamless experience across all platforms. With the promise of two major expansions, Night Springs and Lake House, slated for release later in 2024, the future looks bright for fans of this survival horror saga.
