According to a tweet from PlaystationSize, OXENFREE II, the highly anticipated sequel to the popular indie game OXENFREE, has a new release date of July 12th.
delays
OXENFREE II was originally scheduled for release in 2021, but it was pushed back to 2022, then again to 2023. Fans of the original game have been waiting for news about the sequel for a long time, and this new release date gives them hope that the wait is almost over.
the story
OXENFREE II follows Riley, who is on a road trip with her friends to reconnect after her mother's death. They find themselves on an abandoned island, where they encounter a supernatural force that threatens their lives and sanity. The game is expected to have the same eerie atmosphere and dialogue-driven gameplay that made the first game a success.
Despite the delays, Night School Studio has been hard at work on the game, and it appears that they are nearing completion. Fans are hoping for a polished and memorable experience as a result of the extra time.
not the first time
It's worth noting that this isn't the first time PlaystationSize has given an OXENFREE II release date. The previous one was February 8th, 2022, which obviously did not happen. The reason for the multiple delays is unknown, but it is likely due to the ongoing challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the complexities of game development.
mark your calendar
Regardless, fans of the series can mark their calendars for July 12th for the release of OXENFREE II. Hopefully, this is the final release date, and players will soon be able to return to the eerie world of OXENFREE.
