Alan Wake DLC questyion

[Quiet Stranger]

So I preordered Alan Wake way back (and picked it up when it came out) and it came with this little card saying if I used it (the card) I'd be able to download the first game add-on content for it, well I just NOW try to download it and it won't let me, what's going on???

It comes out at the end of July, the 28th I think.

I mean, I can wait (i have about a shitload of MS points) but the fact of the matter is, I could have sworn it said "have early access to the first DLC for Alan Wake"

Hasn't been released, I think.

Will someone tell me what how DLCs for horror games will work? It's not like shooters where you can keep blowing people away with new weapons in multiplayer or RPGs where you can get a new mission, a new location to explore, etc.

I am actually also wondering how they're going to do this with Alan Wake.....cause I remember how the game ends unless it's like kind of a "fork in the road" kind of thing in the main game where you "step off the main path" and it takes you to the DLC quest then when you finish that you get back on the "main road"

I think its a new episode. The game is broken up into episodes like a TV show and came with about 6. So they'll be carrying on from the story.

Yes, it is a new episode. Another DLC episode has also been announced.

And before someone asks, yes the game ended and we are not getting missing bits of the game. The game just ended in a way that could use a bit enlightening in forms of new episodes.

According to developer interviews, the ending of Alan Wake is the definitive ending. No new events are going to occur from the story. It's been claimed that the DLC episodes are going to show the events of the first season from a different perspective.
