‘Alan Wake’s American Nightmare’ Hits Xbox One

Published

Microsoft brought backwards compatibility support to another batch of Xbox 360 games this week, including LEGO Batman, Sam & Max Beyond Time & Space, Trials HD and Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, all of which are now playable on the Xbox One.

Like the 100+ other titles that have been updated since Microsoft started going through the Xbox 360’s library back in November, these games now support cloud saves, game add-ons, achievements and Game DVR, screenshots and Windows 10 streaming. They’re also cross-platform compatible, so you can play them online with friends, even if you’re on the Xbox One and they’re on the Xbox 360. If you own any of these games, they’ll appear in your XBO game library.

Remedy’s Xbox One exclusive time-manipulating action shooter hybrid Quantum Break releases on April 5. Pre-order it and you’ll get the original Alan Wake.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
