Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney shuts down Steam hopes for Alan Wake 2. A Reddit user's inquiry regarding a Steam release of Remedy's Alan Wake 2 received a blunt response from Sweeney: it won't be happening. The concise reply left the gamer disappointed, prompting a shift in plans to purchase the game on Xbox instead.

This situation highlights the unique nature of Alan Wake 2's exclusivity. Unlike many Epic Games Store exclusives, Epic Games not only published the title but also co-funded its development with Remedy. While Remedy expressed satisfaction with the collaboration and sales meeting expectations, they've since announced future self-publishing, paving the way for releases on platforms like Steam. Interestingly, the game hasn't yet turned a profit over a year after its launch.
