Nordic Games, which recently announced it had the distribution rights to the PC version of Alan Wake, has announced that the game will be released on the 16th February on Steam, then through other digital distributors at a later date. The game will cost $29.99 USD for the game and all of the DLC content, and $34.99 USD for the Limited Collector’s Edition.
The publisher also revealed the following exclusive PC features:

The Limited Collector’s Edition of Alan Wake will probably include much of the same content of the Xbox 360’s version: the game’s soundtrack, a 144-page book featuring additional backstory material, presented as a compilation of FBI dossiers, along with a short story credited to the protagonist.
The original Alan Wake earned an 8.8/10 score from Strategy Informer’s review.
