Alan Wake joins Michael Myers from the classic "Halloween" and Jake Skellington from Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas" in Fortnite, but in a very special way.

Because even before the skin hits the item store, you'll be able to play a new creative map that lets you relive the events from the first Alan Wake game!

Fortnite's Alan Wake: Flashback - Map Code & Gameplay Experience

Alan Wake: Flashback is a reimagining, so to speak, of the events of Alan Wake, created using the Unreal Editor for Fortnite. This island was developed in collaboration with Remedy Entertainment, Spiral House and Zen Creative.

The Fortnite version condenses the story of the first part to about half an hour of single-player action, while you explore different locations of the game and flashbacks of the game keep appearing.


With Alan Wake 2 coming out on October 27, this is the perfect opportunity to promote the game for Epic Games. Also, because you get the Fortnite skin for free when you purchase the game through Epic Games.

If you want to try out Alan Wake: Flashback for yourself in Fortnite, you can easily join the creative island using the island code 3426-5561-3374.
