Alan Wake’s “The Signal” DLC teased with screenshot

Remedy has released the first piece of media out of their upcoming Alan Wake downloadable content. Titled “The Signal“, it will release on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace on July 27th. According to Remedy, “the DLC is entirely optional and is free for people who purchased Alan Wake.”

“There’s actually only 2 [Alan Wake DLCs] that have been announced. This is extra content that we started developing after Alan Wake was shipped. They are to bridge the gap between Alan Wake 1 and Alan Wake 2 (if made).

“They will give you a bit more insight into the story but they are entirely optional and if you don’t play them you still will understand the story if we continue it on for Alan Wake 2. Think of them like Christmas specials in a TV series”

The screenshot, currently exclusive to Facebook, can be seen below.
