Alan Wake 2 contains many “tastes” and many of them have probably not been discovered yet. Among them, there was a nice surprise for Max Payne fans, which Sam Lake, the creative director at Remedy Entertainment, decided to reveal directly.
Casting Max Payne in Alan Wake 2
He shared on X Lake group photo with several cast members of the iconic Max Payne, released 22 years ago. As it turns out, the team discreetly appeared in the second installment of Alan Wake’s adventures, so it is very possible that even the most attentive players did not notice them.
In the mentioned photo there are – apart from Lake himself – Jani Niipola (Alex Balder from Max Payne), Carol Kiriakos (Mona Sax), Aki Järvilehto (BB), as well as Sam Lake’s parents, who played respectively: Nicole Horne and Alfred Woden.
Loyal fans have certainly already noticed that this lineup is missing one very important person – the voice of Max Payne himself, i.e. James McCaffrey. Unfortunately, the actor died in mid-December, which we also informed about.
Attention! The following contains spoilers for Alan Wake 2.
The actors from the photo will appear in the short film Yötön Yö (Nightless Night), which can optionally be played in the game. The material lasts about 15 minutes and is entirely in Finnish. The performers of the above-mentioned roles in the production of Max Payne were immortalized during the dancing scene.
Let us also note that Alan Wake 2 received The Final Draft update in December, which brought, among others: New Game Plus mode.
Alan Wake 2 debuted on October 27, 2023 and is available on PC (only in the Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Remedy is currently working on two expansions for the game – The Lake House and Night Springs.
