Remedy has said that they do want to carry on the story beyond the planned DLC.

Alan Wake franchise head Oskari Hakkinen has been talking about the future of the game in an interview with Eurogamer.

Hakkinen said: "Being in this launch phase at the moment, we haven't had a chance to get out to Redmond, Game Studios, and discuss anything further of how we move on. But I don't see any reason why we wouldn't continue with Microsoft with a full-blown sequel for Alan Wake."

He added: "We definitely want to do it. We have great ideas for it. There's certainly a want, and that want is I believe from both sides. Right now I can't confirm anything."
