Oxenfree II Lost Signals
Landed in 2016 on consoles, PC and mobile, the first chapter of this franchise has become in a short time one of the most talked about and appreciated indie horror films of the sector. It is a dynamic adventure that starts from the simple premises of 90s teen horror – a group of guys in a macabre and lonely location – and then opens the doors to the supernatural, setting the plot on the solid foundations of a system of choices that will allow you to write a story with multiple endings. The ludic-narrative qualities of this production, which also does not disdain themes such as the eternal return and the cyclical nature of time, were so appreciated as to prompt the Night School Studio team to create a sequel.OXENFREE II: Lost Signals will restart from the key elements of the previous chapter, however enriching the gameplay with new solutions such as the possibility of travel between different space-time lines. As for the plot, we know that this new production will focus on an unprecedented cast of protagonists and will introduce, at the same time, the evil followers of the cult of the Ascendancy, whose goal is to open new dimensional rifts.
