Alan Wake 2 is the latest title from Remedy Entertainment, and as the first release following the studio's previously announced plans for a connected universe between all their titles, it goes all-in on its efforts to tie its games together. Alan Wake 2 has multiple references large and small to all of Remedy's other games. The most obvious and prominent is from Control, since the two bridge the gap between the pre-official RCU and the current phase. Control's AWE DLC set this up quite clearly, and fans naturally expected it to feature heavily in Alan Wake 2.
