Alan Wake's DLC episodes - the first of which is free to all purchasers of a new, boxed copy of the title - won't extend the main story of the game, developer Remedy's revealed yesterday via the official Twitter account. Speaking to CVG ahead of Alan Wake's release this week, Remedy's very own Oskari Hakkinen said the downloadable content, which has just been confirmed for a July 28, 2010 release, will offer a "different perspective" on the main story.

He said in the CVG interview: "We are doing some game add-ons like we've announced. These will be standalone episodes that will bridge between season one and hopefully the possibility of doing a season two. Season one - just to be clear - is a full package and you'll unravel the mystery and reach all your goals. The game add-ons aren't telling more of the story, so to speak. It'll give you a different perspective on the things you've done on season one and then trying to set you up for the possible things you're going to do in season two."
