In Alan Wake II, the gameplay is different from the first game. It's a survival horror game where you see the character from the outside, not from their view. You can play as either Alan Wake or Saga Anderson in two separate stories. You can choose which story to play first, but some parts can only be played as Saga or as Alan.

Shining the flashlight on enemies weakens them, but it uses up the battery. You have to be careful with how you use batteries and bullets to stay alive. When enemies get close, Alan or Saga can quickly dodge out of the way.
There's a detective part in the game, too. When you play as Saga, you can pause the game and go to a special place in her mind called the "Mind Place". It's like a 3D menu where you see what's in Saga's thoughts. Here, you can connect clues on a pinboard to solve the main mystery and learn about the characters.
Just like in the first game, you find pages of a manuscript that give hints about what's coming next. But in Alan Wake II, there's also a system where you can choose what to say in conversations, which affects how the story goes.
