Night School, a Netflix Game Studio, announced that OXENFREE II: Lost Signals is set to launch on 12 July on the Nintendo Switch system, PlayStation 5 & 4, PC and Mac via Steam and on Netflix. The game is the mind-bending follow-up to the critically-acclaimed supernatural thriller OXENFREE.

Set five years after the events of the first game, which continues to be celebrated for its compelling storytelling, relatable characters and captivating art style, OXENFREE II will take players on a gripping narrative-driven adventure featuring an all-new cast of characters and original story. 

“With OXENFREE II: Lost Signals, we wanted to tap into the essence and world that made the original game so special, while immersing players in a brand new story with even higher stakes,” said Night School co-founder and studio director Sean Krankel. “This game has been a labour of love, and we can’t wait for players to embody Riley, shaping her through life altering choices and overcoming supernatural challenges that threaten to destroy her future.”

OXENFREE II: Lost Signals follows the story of Riley Poverly, an environmental researcher who returns to her hometown Camena to investigate unnaturally occurring radio frequency signals causing disturbances in electronic equipment. 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’s signature, naturalistic dialogue system, OXENFREE II: Lost Signals takes players on a new journey where they’ll shape their experience in unexpected ways.
