Kotimaisen Remedyn Alan Wake 2 on toteutettu viimeisen päälle sitä tekijöiden visiota kunnioittaen. Remedyn Sami Järvi paljasti The Washington Postille, että Alan Wake 2:n kummallisuuksia innoitti Oscar-voittaja Everything Everywhere All at Once. Tai oikeastaan elokuva antoi itsevarmuutta omaan tekemiseen.
"We were already really far into making [Alan Wake 2], but it gave me confidence into understanding that what we're doing here, we are doing these things at the right time."
"I love film, music, reading books, and there are thrilling inspirational things happening, but I feel there are bigger leaps happening within games. With Alan Wake especially, I have discovered that I can tap into these other mediums, and they can be seen as elements inside games, not as a separate medium. All of these mediums can combine to create something new and exciting, something more than the sum of its parts."
