Alan Wake 2 Introduces Saga Anderson
The new video reveals new details about the second main character of the game, Saga Anderson, an FBI agent. Principal Writer Clay Murphy said, “We have this theme of duality and echoes in Alan Wake 2 so we needed a counter-point, like another perspective, in the game that would play off of Alan’s as well as having a character located in the Pacific northwest so we could have both of those worlds present in the game and playable for the players.”
The Face and Voice of Saga Shares Statement
The face and voice of Anderson in Alan Wake 2 is Melanie Liburd who says this is her first time doing voicework and lending her appearance in a video game. She is a British actress who appeared in some TV shows in the past like This Is Us and Power. She says, “I’m excited for the world to see Saga because I think she’s a brilliant role model and just to see a woman in this role — a woman of colour being a protagonist in a game — we don’t see that often. And just to have a lifestyle that she has, doing her best to balance work and a family, I just think that’s really relatable to a lot of people.”
Alan Wake 2 launches on October 17, 2023 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
