Alan Wake 2 Title Update 1.2.3 Released, Full Patch Notes

16 Comments

Remedy has released Title Update 1.2.3 for Alan Wake 2. According to the release notes, this patch fixes a number of bugs that plagued the main game and its latest DLC. So, let’s take a closer look at what it fixes.

Patch 1.2.3 fixes an issue where players could control agent Estevez during her reaction after teleporting to the Oceanview Motel, causing her to do some weird yoga. It also fixes an issue where the holstered shotgun would hover when the Classic Alan Wake Outfit was equipped.

Title Update 1.2.3 also fixes adaptive triggers so that they do not cause continuous vibrations after equipping trauma pads or carrying a power core. Plus, it fixes the ‘Shape of a Man’ achievement/trophy not unlocking.

From what I’ve seen, this update does not pack any performance improvements. So, don’t expect the game to perform better than before. I also did not see any visual or performance improvements for its Ray Tracing or Path Tracing effects.

Alan Wake 2 came out on PC one year ago. The game was published by Epic Games and there are still no plans to release it on Steam. And, to be honest, I don’t expect it to ever hit Valve’s service. Epic Games will most likely keep it as an exclusive for its store. It sucks but hey, it is what it is. Let’s at least hope that Remedy will not repeat the same mistake with its next title.

Like always, EGS will download this update the next time you launch its client. Below you can also find its complete changelog.
