Where some teams would stay safe in their additional downloadable offerings, building on the foundation laid by the full game, Remedy has gone wild. This is exactly the kind of episodic content I’m looking for. While I’m sure the upcoming Lake House DLC will further our connections to Control, I’m glad Remedy took the time to make something wholly unique, which is what that studio is.
The Night Springs DLC really shines in its narratives presented in each chapter and raises many questions not only for Alan Wake, but for Control and even Quantum Break, who enter this great spiral that is the multiverse created by Remedy. The three episodes are fun, bring humor, terror and impress with the quality of the plot and gameplay.

It's a wonderful addition to the main game. Each episode will take around 1-1.5 hours to explore every corner of the map. It will give you more thoughts about the multiverse and links between Control, Alan Wake and Quantum Brake games.
P.S. The OST is amazing, one more banger from Remedy published!!!!

"Night Springs" is a great expansion to Alan Wake II that gives players a few hours of entertaining content with the kind of writing and style that Remedy excels at. It shows off the creativity of the studio, and how committed they are to doing things no other studio is doing. Some people may be disappointed that it doesn't explain the main game's confusing story, though.
Short, sharp episodes highlight the base
game’s shortcomings, but otherwise this
miniseries is a merry turn down the spiral
that leaves us wanting more. [Issue#43, p.95]
Three new stories set in the Alan Wake multiverse, starring alternative versions of familiar faces. Survival horror, unlikely love stories, caffeinated zombie-cultists and meta-humour condensed into three hours of multiverse gameplay, a condensed distillation of Remedy's signature madness.
All in all, Night Springs is a short excuse to revel in the oddities of Alan Wake 2 and Remedy. Whether it’s comedic, horror-tinged, or genre-hopping, the developer is just having loads of fun with this DLC. We’d love it to be a little longer, or perhaps even include another episode or two, but what’s here is a reminder that Remedy is one of the most original and unique developers in the game right now.
The Night Springs DLC expands on the rich and interwoven storyline of Alan Wake 2 in a truly unexpected way. The trio of different stories bring their own protagonists and their own approach to gameplay. In some places it's more of a classic approach, in others it's a novel mix. It's a must for fans, but don't expect any definitive answers to your questions.
Night Springs expansion surprised me a lot. I was expecting to play as Saga or Wake, but Remedy show once again they can be super creative. Amazing DLC worth playing a 100%

Episode 1 was awesome, the other 2 were meh. The story is overcomplex for no reason.

Fun and weird scenarios with that usual Remedy quality, but the gameplay is a little uninspired tbh.

Much like the actual game it is a DLC for, Night Springs isn't particularly fun or engaging. Felt bored playing through it, and the suspense/horror was non-existent.

Terrible expansion just like the main game no map and not enough checkpoints is also great

Summary Visions and dreams. Fiction is written and coming true. Fiction collapses and remains just words on a page. These are those stories... in Night Springs. Play as several familiar characters from the world of Alan Wake and experience the unexplainable in multiple self-contained episodes of Night Springs, a fictional tv-show set in the wo...
