Alan Wake will be available to download from Steam on February 16, Nordic Games has announced.
The psychological horror game will debut on Steam, before releasing on other "popular digital channels" soon after. A boxed version will also be available from high-street retailers at a later date.


The game, alongside downloadable packs 'The Signal' and 'The Writer', will cost $29.99 to download from Steam, while a Limited Collector's Edition will be available for $34.99. No European price details were revealed.
The former Xbox 360-exclusive was announced for the PC last December. In addition to Steam support and DLC, it will feature upgraded visuals.
Developer Remedy Entertainment told Digital Spy that a PC version was originally canned because of the studio's small size.
Alan Wake's American Nightmare, a downloadable direct sequel for Xbox Live Arcade, was announced at last year's Spike TV VGAs.
