Alan Wake Remastered is a remastered version of Alan Wake, including the The Signal and The Writer DLC. Alan Wake's American Nightmare is not included and there are no plans for it.[2]
Enhancements include: improved textures, visual effects, foliage movement, re-done pre-rendered cutscenes (including all improvements from this remaster in addition to new motion capture, improved facial animations and lip sync), added a new volumetric lighting system, additional environmental geometry, enhanced character models (updated hair and skin shaders), proper scalable UI, 64-bit support, DirectX 12 support, DLSS support and engine optimizations (like multithreading to reduce CPU bottlenecks).[3][4][5]

Graphics settings.
Advanced options for graphics.
Unofficial DLSS replacement with AMD's FSR 2.0
- Replaces in-game DLSS option with AMD's FSR 2.0, enabling upscaling on non-RTX graphics cards.
- This unofficial fan-made method can possibly contain severe bugs and has not been tested on all releases of the game (only Epic) and only tested on AMD-hardware.
- Requires the user to run a file that edits the Windows Registry, which if done incorrectly, can potentially harm your Windows installation.
- Download the latest version of DLSS2FSR release from Nexusmods.
- Extract the contents of the archive, then copy the content of bin/x64 next to the nvngx_dlss.dll file (root of the game directory) in your Alan Wake Remastered installation folder.
- Run EnableSignatureOverride.reg and confirm merge (on Linux open regedit from the game prefix and import EnableSignatureOverride.reg).
- Enable DLSS (should appear now, even on unsupported hardware) through the in-game settings.
- Now instead of DLSS, FSR 2.0 should be used by the game for upscaling.
Frame rate (FPS)
- By default, as the frame rate increases, mouse sensitivity and acceleration is slightly reduced. Enable Direct Aiming (which disables mouse smoothing and acceleration) to circumvent this.[9]

Issues unresolved
Enemy ragdolls do not work as intended
- Patch 1.02 introduced a new bug where enemy ragdoll death animations do not behave correctly.

Graphical glitches/artifacting on AMD CPU builds
- Many jarring graphical glitches occur on any version of the game, such as lighting bugs causing random flashes of light, random black bars appearing, and vertex explosions. This issue seems to be more common on PC builds with AMD CPUs.

- 2560x1440 was not available when the game was launched on a 1920x1080 desktop despite being the native resolution. This option only became selectable when desktop resolution was set to 1440p.

- Resolution-scaling became disabled when TAA was disabled. The engine uses MSAA for vegetation-rendering, which is forced on in all versions of the game (even on the original PC-release); disabling it leads to transparent and heavily aliased grass. DLSS-version specified in the nvngx_dlss.dll properties menu.

- At 144Hz, framerate-drops cause a consistent 144FPS to drop to a consistent 72FPS.

- Similar behavior to the original version. The official FAQ falsely claims both versions as uncapped. If direct aiming is disabled, mouse sensitivity and acceleration will still be reduced at very high frame rates; however, unlike the original, the difference is rather small and the game remains very playable at all times.
