Alan Wake's American Nightmare (2012)

Alan Wake's American Nightmare is a 2012 sequel to Remedy Entertainment's Alan Wake. American Nightmare takes place in Night Springs, Arizona, a construct based on Alan's reinterpretation of a screenplay he wrote for the fictional television anthology series "Night Springs," where Alan fights the Taken directed by his evil doppelganger Mr. Scratch.

As in Alan Wake, the title character can carry one one-handed weapon, one two-handed weapon, an Orion flare gun, and a supply of flares and flashbang grenades. Ammunition is abstracted into a generic pickup for each type of weapon.

The following weapons were used in the video game Alan Wake's American Nightmare:


One-Handed Weapons

Beretta 92FS Inox

Alan's initial weapon, the "9mm Handgun" is a Beretta 92FS Inox. It loads a ten-round magazine and can carry forty extra rounds.

Remington Model Seven CDL

Returning from Alan Wake is the "Hunting Rifle," a Remington Model Seven CDL with a five-round internal magazine. Although it now has a scope, it is never used. Its low rate of fire and small magazine counter its high damage and ability to destroy two Taken with one shot. Its crate is unlocked after collecting fifteen manuscript pages.

Handheld Flare

Ueful weapon against the Taken. When lit, a flare emits a very bright red light that saps the darkness from Taken close to it and keeps them away. Unlike flashbangs, flares cannot actually kill off Taken. Alan can only carry five at a time.
