Independent video game developer Night School Studio and publisher MWM Interactive have revealed that the supernatural mystery-thriller game, OXENFREE II: Lost Signals, will be available on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 at launch in 2022, as well as on Nintendo Switch and Steam. Set five years after the events of the original OXENFREE, the highly anticipated sequel will take players on a gripping narrative-driven adventure featuring an all-new cast of characters and original story.

Revealed during April’s Nintendo Indie World Showcase (then with a 2021 release mentioned), OXENFREE II: Lost Signals follows the story of Riley, an environmental researcher who returns to her hometown Camena to investigate mysterious radio frequency signals causing disturbances in electronic equipment throughout the small town. She soon discovers a long history of ghostly happenings on the nearby Edwards Island and becomes entangled in a frightening, supernatural mystery. Featuring Night School Studio’s signature, naturalistic dialogue system, OXENFREE II: Lost Signals gives players more agency to shape their experience in unexpected ways.

In April, Sean Krankel, co-founder and studio director at Night School Studio, said: “Words cannot begin to express how happy I am to finally talk about OXENFREE II: Lost Signals. OXENFREE is such a special game to us, and it has been an incredible experience to revisit this world. We’re eager to welcome our players back while inviting newcomers to embark on an adventure with an entirely new cast of characters that retains the weird, heartfelt, and personalized experience of the original.”

Released in 2016, OXENFREE garnered critical acclaim and won an Independent Games Festival Award for Excellence in Visual Art and was nominated for a D.I.C.E award for Outstanding Achievement in Story, and a SXSW Game Award for Excellence in Narrative.

OXENFREE II: Lost Signals will be available in 2022. Follow Night School Studio on TwitterFacebook, and Instagram or visit the official website at www.nightschoolstudio.com/oxenfree-ii for more updates.
