Aside from pistols, shotguns and the like being available in Alan Wake 2, there’s more weaponry to be found! Here’s when, where, and how to unlock the crossbow in Alan Wake 2.
Alan Wake 2 Where to Find the Crossbow:
You’ll locate the Crossbow in Alan Wake 2 when visiting the town of Watery during Return 3: Local Girl. Once you arrive, you’ll need to talk with the Koskelas brothers, who tell you about the trailer you own and that the key to open it is at Coffee World. They’ll move out of the way for you to continue story progression. Follow the path, and you’ll eventually come across a Hunting Shack. I’ve marked it in the map below.
Once you’re here, if you look to the right of the Hunting Shack, you’ll see a shooting range as well as a chest on the ground with a combination padlock.
Alan Wake 2 How to Unlock the Crossbow Chest
The combination to opening this chest is 527. The solution is within the shooting range. Looking at the numbered targets, you will notice arrows in three of them. Number 5 has 1 arrow, number 2 has 2 arrows, and number 7 has 3 arrows. 1, 2,3, which means the combination is 527. Input this into the padlock, and the chest will open, unlocking the crossbow.
You now have the crossbow unlocked! Pretty easy, right? It’s a fun weapon to use, especially if you are trying to play stealthily and take out Takens without alerting others.
