If you have a PlayStation 5, you most likely have at least the bare minimum version of its internet service, PlayStation+. The cheapest option lets you play games online with others and get a few free games every month. This month, one of those free games happens to be, "Alan Wake 2," and you should download it ASAP.
Funnily enough, I was already playing, "Alan Wake 2," via checking it out from the library, but now I can play it without even needing a disc! Set in the same in-game universe as, "Alan Wake," and, "Control," you don't need to have played either to enjoy this intense and thrilling horror title. The first, "Alan Wake," was more of an action and adventure game with some scary trappings while, "Control," was quirky, and I honestly didn't vibe with it much. "Alan Wake 2," however, is spooky, mysterious, and incredibly engaging.

A chunk of the game is spent as Saga Anderson, an FBI agent with some strong problem-solving skills and profiling abilities, while some of the game is spent as Alan Wake himself. By playing as both her and him, you try to figure out what creepy and culty business is happening in the Pacific Northwest. It is quite an intense game and I'm loving it as I do many of the games Remedy puts out (my weird inability to get into, "Control," aside). If you've got a PS5 and even the base subscription to PlayStation+, go add, "Alan Wake 2," to your library now and get to playing it; I know I'm having a ball--albeit a very intense one!
