Alan Wake 2 is one of the leaders in The Game Awards, dubbed the “Oscars of gaming” with eight nominations in different categories. The game was released by the Espoo-based game developer Remedy Entertainment in October this year.

In a nutshell, Alan Wake 2 pushes players into a psychological horror story from the perspective of two playable characters by utilizing the power of current consoles and PCs. Full of references to Finland, the horror adventure relies on blue-and-white exoticism.

Finnish actors Ilkka Villi, Martti Suosalo and Peter Franzen along with Sami Järvi, the creative director at Remedy, are all featured in the game.
