We've at last gotten a proper look at Alan Wake 2's first major DLC. At Summer Game Fest, Remedy made an appearance to show off Night Springs. Even better, it releases tomorrow.
Night Springs is technically about Alan Wake himself, following him as he writes the scripts for the in-universe TV show, Night Springs...
and deals with their impact on both his reality in the Dark Place, and the real world. But you're not playing as Alan this time: you'll be playing as a number of different characters across three different episodes, all of whom you should recognize..
.sort of. Though the people you're playing as may look familiar, you're actually playing Night Springs versions of them, which might present a new twist on people you thought you knew.
Alan Wake 2’s Night Springs expansion launches tomorrow. Play as three characters including Control's Jesse Faden. Full details: https://t.

That last one is a particularly striking twist, and we'll get to see an alternate version of Jesse search for her brother in Coffee World. In addition to new story content, a free update on June 8 will add Photo Mode to Alan Wake 2 for all players. The Night Springs DLC comes with the Expansion Pass for Alan Wake 2, which is included in the digit.
