Hello Neighbor 2 Announced for Xbox Series X

Hello Neighbor 2 will come to Xbox Series X, Xbox One and PC in 2021. Set immediately after the events of the first game in the horror franchise, you'll play as Quentin, a reporter looking into disappearances in the Raven Brooks area - before coming across an abandoned house occupied by a raven-like monster. The story will fit into the cross-media universe Hello Neighbor's become since its original release. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/07/23/hello-neighbor-2-announcement-trailer"] The game expands the original's single-house setting to a full open world, and allowing you to scavenge for materials across the whole of Raven Brooks. Where the first game's threat, Mr. Peterson would navigate using developer-placed waypoints, the new monster uses self-learning AI to stalk you, apparently learning from your movements and attmepting to stop you figuring out the neighbourhood's secrets. You can play an alpha for the game by heading to the Hello Neighbor 2 website. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Joe Skrebels is IGN's Executive Editor of News. Follow him on Twitter.
