Search the Apartment

To begin this chapter, head toward Parliament Tower. Go inside and enter the elevator. Once again, the elevator will take players back to Alice and Alan’s home in New York, or at least a representation of it in the Dark Place. Go through the door in the back left of the room and head to the kitchen. Tun around to the living room to find a TV with Alice on it.

Follow along with the exhibit to find another video of Alice. Leave this room and head down the hallway to find the next video from Alice. This leads to a room with nine TVs all playing the same recording of Alice. After the recording is over, players can interact with the TVs to triggera live-action cutscenethat brings this chapter to a close and Initiation 7: Masks begins.

Interact With the TV

Just like with many of Alan’s previous chapters, the first step of this chapter is to interact with the TV to talk to Mr. Door. After the live-action cutscene is over, go toward the exit sign. This time players will not need to have to worry about unlocking a door with a code. Run to Ahti, speak with him, and then go through the door to the right of him. The shortcut to the basement is finally open, and players will need to go down there again to find pictures that are in the shoebox.

Enter the basement and walk out onto the balcony. Use the Angel Lamp and then leave the room. The path that leads downstairs is now open. Once downstairs, use the Angel Lamp againto open a path forward. Go north anduse the Angel Lamp to make the shoebox appear.

Pick up the pictures inside the shoebox. Go back upstairs and head to the room with the TV in it fromInitiation 1: Late Night. Use the Angel Lamp to activate the TV. Doing so ends the current chapter and begins the next one, Zane’s Film.

Alan Wake 2is available now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
