Alan Wake’s Dead Daylight, renowned for its high-profile horror crossovers, is gearing up for another standout collaboration. Since its inaugural crossover in October 2016, the game has entwined with iconic franchises like Saw, Halloween, Alien, Child’s Play, and Resident Evil. The much-anticipated Alan Wake crossover, slated for release on January 30, 2024.
This successful crossover venture might not end there. Positioned within Remedy’s Connected Universe, initially hinted at with the release of Control in 2019, the Alan Wake crossover aligns with the overarching Remedyverse narrative. The official link between Control and Alan Wake’s Dead Daylight was solidified in Control’s AWE DLC, where Alan Wake played a substantial role.
Alan Wake 2 further delved into the connected universe concept, seamlessly incorporating characters from Control and striking a delicate balance between fan-service and original storytelling. With the Remedy Connected Universe now firmly established, a lighthearted acknowledgment of the Dead by Daylight x Alan Wake crossover appears well-earned.
Speculation arises about a potential integration involving The Dark Place’s loops, where Alan Wake grapples with his perpetual entrapment. The manipulation of reality within The Dark Place could logically throw Alan into a Dead by Daylight Trial during one of these loops, serving as a fitting reference.An in-game document providing details about Dead by Daylight’s Entity, Killers, and perhaps a specific map emerges as a seamless way for the next Remedy Connected Universe game to pay homage to this exciting crossover.
