Oxenfree II: Lost Signals, the upcoming title from Night School Studio, promises a captivating, reality-bending adventure, carrying forward the legacy of its critically-acclaimed predecessor, Oxenfree.
Oxenfree 2 Xbox
As of right now, it appears that Oxenfree 2 will NOT be available on Xbox. According to the official website for the game, it looks like it will only be available via Netflix, PlayStation 4 and 5, Nintendo Switch, and on PC.
Whether or not it will eventually be on Xbox is unclear. Oxenfree 2 is being published by Netflix, which makes it a unique title. It would not surprise me that it gets there at some point, but nothing official has been announced.
Game Description
In Oxenfree II, players return to the game’s familiar setting, but this time in the coastal town of Camena, where unnatural electromagnetic waves cause electrical and radio interference. Riley Poverly, the game’s protagonist, is drawn back to her hometown to investigate this phenomenon, only to be thrust into a reality she never expected.
In this immersive sequel, players are granted the autonomy to shape the narrative with their choices, a cornerstone feature retained from the original game. Whether you choose to deepen a high school friendship or neglect a needy fisherman, every decision you make influences Riley’s development, the story’s progression, and the available options at every turn.
Oxenfree II introduces a new walkie talkie conversation system, allowing players to interact with locals and gather vital information about Camena’s mysteries. The player’s level of engagement with this system has direct consequences on the story’s development.
The game also delves into the events of five years prior, where teenagers inadvertently created a rift between realities and timelines on Edwards Island. Now, a cult-like group named Parentage is attempting to open a new portal for reasons yet unknown. The player’s role extends to uncovering their intentions and preventing their potentially dangerous plan.
A signature feature returning to Oxenfree II is the radio mechanic, where players tune into ghostly signals and static frequencies to interact with the supernatural, manipulate the game world, and even journey to the past via ‘time tears.’
The stakes in Oxenfree II are higher than ever, with Riley’s future and the town of Camena’s fate hanging in the balance. Players are encouraged to explore, take risks, and potentially shape not just their destiny, but that of everyone in Camena.
Oxenfree II is scheduled for release on July 12th, 2023.
