RELATED: Alan Wake Remastered Trailer Compares New Game to the Original
Recently, it was announced that while Alan Wake Remastered will support Nvidia’s DLSS upscaling, it won’t have ray tracing. For those who aren’t aware, ray tracing is a standard algorithm in many new games, especially AAA titles, which accurately reflects light and shadow based on the position of the player. Remedy has said that the reason the remaster doesn’t support this is down to time, adding that it would have taken “resources away from other critical areas.”
October is shaping up to be a huge month for game releases. Along with Alan Wake, there’s also Far Cry 6, Back 4 Blood, and the new Mario Party. The original Alan Wake game came out in 2010 and has since gone on to become something of a classic hidden gem. While the remake gives it a visual boost to bring it into the modern era of gaming, it will retain the overall look and feel of the original, which will please many fans.
Here are the full specs for the PC version of the game:

CPU: i5-3340 or Ryzen 3 1200
