In a report with VG247, Remedy's Oskari Häkkinen gave the low down on the situation.
"Frankly, we're a small studio. We're 50 people, and being a small studio, it makes a lot more sense for us to focus on one platform," said Häkkinen. "Currently we're fully focused on the Xbox version, and [as for] what the future holds, we haven't got anything to announce, and we haven't thought that far right now."
"Saying that Alan Wake is best played on a sofa with 5.1 surround and a big TV screen, I think is more of a preference than anything else," stated Häkkinen. Rejecting Microsoft's flimsy explanation behind the move, Häkkinen went on to state:
"We're not going out there to say that PC gamers can't enjoy it from their own PC set-up. We're certainly not saying that. We have a strong heritage in PC gaming as well."
As far as a eventual PC release in the future is concerned, Häkkinen said that the decision to do so would come from a “sit down” with Microsoft to “see where the title goes”.
Alan Wake is due to arrive on Xbox 360 this May.
