It's been five years since Night School Stud♈io's Oxenfree first debuted, and the supernatural horror mystery is making a return later this year with Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals on Nintendo Switch and Stea🎉m.
In the original Oxenfree, you play as Alex, a teenager seeking a weekend of adventure with her friends on a 𝓡nearby island. Ultimately, the cast gets more than they bargained for after wandering too far into the mysterious island, stumbling upon interference f🦩rom strange radio frequencies, bizarre visions, and otherworldly encounters. You'll work with your friends to uncover the mystery behind what's causing the rift, making difficult decisions along the way.
Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals doesn't have too much information available just yet, but Night School already has a Steam page up noting t🐟hat the game takes place five years after the original Oxenfree. This time, you follow Riley, a young girl returning to her hometown after years of being away.
The trailer promises the return of some familiar Oxenfree mechanics, like the creepy radio dial used to communicate w♏ith w𒈔hatever the hell is lurking out there. It looks like communicating with otherworldly entities is back on the agenda.
The original thriller is regarded as a bit of an indie thriller classic, with a mostly positive rating on Steam and largely well-received by critics. You can grab that one now on just about 🌸any platform - iOS, Android, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
