New Control DLC AWE Confirms The Return Of Alan Wake

  |  
Aug 7, 2020

The final DLC for Control has just gotten a new trailer. The Control: AWE announcement was dropped today during the Sony State of Play Showcase, and featured a number of interesting tidbits. In addition to an Overlook Hotel-style environment, the trailer also confirmed the return of Alan Wake, which DreadXP gumshoe Ted discerned months ago. This is by far the most interesting part of the announcement, and leads to the assumption of more Alan Wake–Control connected games.

Control, for those who have not played, follows the supernatural adventure of Jesse Faden. Jesse is the director of the FBC, the Federal Bureau of Control. This upcoming expansion will have her exploring a division of the Bureau known as the “Investigations Sector of the Oldest House.” Presumably another underground bunker full of geometric concrete, the Oldest House was (is?) the place where FBC monitored Altered World Events, also known as AWE. One of these events, as you may have guessed, happened to one Alan Wake in the twon of Bright Falls.

If that all is confusing and gibberish, you can read more about Control in our full review here. And for more information, check out the Control website by clicking here.

    Episode 267: The Legendary John Harrison and The Haunting (1963)
    This week we chat with filmmaker, producer, composer, writer, author...this guy's done it all...John Harrison. From working with George Romero on everything from Creepshow and Dawn of the Dead to Tales from the Darkside to the Dune miniseries to his Netflix series Residue...he's done it all. He even directed Tales from the Darkside: The Movie, which was Andrew LaSane's Scarred for Life pick, which is one of Terry's favorite movies. We chat about his long history in cinema; about how he started working with Romero to some insights into Tales from the Darkside. And we discuss his latest work, the novel Residue: Paramentals Rising, which is a sequel to the Netflix show. After learning about his horror history--including a memorable viewing of Night of the Living Dead--we find out why The Haunting terrified him as a twelve year old. John references an article written by Anthony McKay in Little Shoppe of Horrors, which can be ordered here.
