Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney shuts down Steam hopes for Alan Wake 2. A Reddit user's inquiry regarding a Steam release for Remedy's Alan Wake 2 received a blunt response from Sweeney: it won't be happening. The brief reply offered no further explanation, leaving the gamer to consider alternative platforms, such as Xbox.

This situation highlights the unique nature of Alan Wake 2's exclusivity. Unlike many Epic Games Store exclusives, Epic Games not only published the title but also co-funded its development with Remedy.

While Remedy expressed satisfaction with the game's sales performance and their collaboration with Epic, they've confirmed that future titles will be self-published, opening the door for releases on platforms like Steam. Interestingly, despite positive sales reports, Alan Wake 2 reportedly hasn't yet turned a profit over a year after its launch.
