Game publisher tinyBuild and game development studio Hologryph, the original creators of the Hello Neighbor franchise, have released a new game, Secret Neighbor, on Roblox. In partnership with seasoned Roblox development studio Amber, they’ve successfully launched a fully-functional multiplayer experience. Available for free, players can dive into the game on PC and mobile platforms, with an Xbox version expected in the near future.
Secret Neighbor offers a fresh twist on the asymmetrical multiplayer genre that the original game is known for. The setting is the mysterious town of Raven Brooks, where six children decide to investigate its eeriest locations. However, one among them is not who they claim to be, as they’re the nefarious Mr. Peterson in disguise. The task for the players is to reveal the truth or risk disappearing forever.
The primary game mode of Secret Neighbor allows up to six players to work together as they traverse one of the five intricate maps. The objective is to locate the exit keys and evade capture, using each child’s unique class abilities. Unknown to the team, one player assumes the role of Mr. Peterson, taking on the persona of the Neighbor, the Butcher, or the Clown.
Moreover, the game offers a Brawl mode, introducing a collection of multiplayer challenges. Players can engage in a pop-gun standoff, a snowball fight, or even a cunning game of Prop Hunt. For a touch of whimsy, players can disguise themselves as inanimate objects, contributing to the humor and excitement of the game.
Once the thrill of the chase subsides, players can congregate and interact in the Secret Neighbor hub. This expansive lobby space allows for socialization and game organization. For the fans of Hello Neighbor, the hub holds several hidden surprises as it’s filled with Easter eggs and references to the rest of the franchise.
The game also introduces an exclusive range of Hello Neighbor cosmetics available for purchase from the Roblox store. These provide a nod to the suspenseful aesthetics of the Raven Brooks universe, letting players carry a piece of that charm wherever they explore.
