Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?
Coelacanth@feddit.nu 3 weeks agoI don’t think you were mislead, Alan Wake 2 is slated to be on PS+ starting Oct. 7th. It was announced during the recent State of Play.
Anyway, I still recommend going through all the games as they are amazing in their own right, and playing one will only heighten the appreciation of the next. Particularly if played in release order. Alan Wake 2 is definitely the crown jewel, so I understand wanting to get to it ASAP, but at the same time it will have a much more profound impact if saved for last.

Oh I see, oct 7th. it appeared as only a trial when I looked. But I think you are correct, better to not rush and experience the story right. Me wanting to jump in right away was mostly a budget thing. But I’ll wair give control a shot instead.

Control is awesome, amazing world building and lore packed inside a really tight third person shooter. There are some Alan Wake references in the lore, but for the most part you can play Control first I think. However, I definitely advise to hold off on playing the AWE DLC until after Alan Wake 1.
