Alan Wake 2: Initiation 1: Late Night Walkthrough

In Initiation 1, you will play as Alan Wake. Examine the TV in the room to begin. Let the Talk Show finish before moving on.

Room	Code

Leave the studio after finishing the Talk Show event and go to the hallway. There will be a door requiring a code to enter. Explore each room and enter the dressing room of the OLD GODS OF ASGARD. Search this room for the code written on the neon sign.

Enter the code to open the door, then move towards the red light. Examine the stage door and watch the movie. Alan will get transported to the Writer's Room after.

Examine the Plot Board in the Writer's Room and check for fragments of Alan's writing. Go to the desk after looking at the board and resume writing. From now on, when controlling Alan, go to the Writer's Room anytime using the Touchpad.

Move from the dressing room to the studio once the movie is over. Examine the TV to finish the Talk Show. Search for the code to the door to leave the studio. It is found in the same dressing room, but by now it will match the order of the blinking neon numbers.

Move towards the Red Light again and open the door to the stage (the same stage where the movie played earlier). Track down the door where a voice is coming from and open it. You will come face to face with the janitor, Ahti. Talk to him about the basement and receive the Janitor's key.

Use the Janitor's key to head to the basement. You can get the Angel Lamp from inside a shoebox in this area.

• Obtain the Talk Show Studio Map

  You can get the Talk Show Studio map near the room where the janitor was. You can check it anytime in your inventory by pressing the left side of the Touchpad.

Hold the Angel's Lamp to the blinking light bulb you'll encounter along the way. There is a fence that will transform into a room through this method. You will be able to proceed beyond. Once you're inside the room, return to the original space by switching the lamp off.

Move deeper into the basement and through two doors to enter a room with a blinking TV. Hold the lamp towards the TV to access the movie. You will be able to go outside afterwards.

Go outside and answer the ringing public telephone. Once you're finished with the conversation, Chapter 3 is cleared.

• Shoeboxes will be unlocked

  Alan can store items in the Shoeboxes found in the Dark Place. Items here can also be accessed from any other shoebox in the area. Store your frequently used items in these boxes to retrieve them anytime.
