Alan Wake Remastered drops an out-of-the-blue patch that glams up the whole thing and lets you skip the intro—which you shouldn't, because it's now in dazzling HDR

Congratulations, Wakeheads: you can now witness Alan at such a brilliantly vivid colour intensity that it becomes, frankly, disturbing. Alan Wake Remastered has HDR now, is what I'm saying, as of its recent 1.33 patch that dropped, rather out of the blue, earlier today.

It does a fair bit, which I'll get into, but I think the headline item is that Alan now has HDR support. His range? Dynamic. His bits? Well, never you mind, but quite high, thank you.

Alongside the new HDR tech, there's also a "new, optional camera style mode.
