According to gamespot.com, this is the first game created  by Remedy after Max Payne 2 and follows the adventures of writer Alan wake, after he moves to a small town called Bright Fall.

After it was initially announced in 2005, for PC and next-generation consoles, the production studio changed it’s market target.
