Stealth Horror Returns in Time-Limited ‘Hello Neighbor 2’ Demo [Trailer]
Developer Eerie Guest and tinyBuild have unleashed a new demo for the upcoming Hello Neighbor 2 on Steam. With the game set for release on December 6th for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, along with the PlayStation and Xbox, this self-contained demo (which is obviously different from the previous one released back in 2020) sees you “return to the house where it all began”. In addition to the demo, tinybuild has also released a demo teaser trailer.
As mentioned, the demo for Hello Neighbor 2 brings you back into Mr. Peterson’s house, where you’ll have to avoid the screaming rubber chickens on the ground (amongst other things) as you search for clues as to just what Peterson is up to in his house.
The sequel to the hit social horror game sees you jump into the shoes of Quinton, who is in the midst of unraveling the entire town of Raven Brooks’ twisted web of mysteries. Quinton becomes suspicious of his neighbor, the reclusive inventor Theodore Peterson, whom Quinton suspects has something to do with the recent string of missing children reports in the town. It’s up to you to find out exactly what he’s hiding.
If you’re keen on checking out the demo, be sure to be quick, as this is another “time-limited demo”. And while you’re at it, if you pre-order the game now, you’ll be granted immediate access to the Hello Neighbor 2 open beta. Plus, if you spring for the Deluxe Edition of the game, you’ll also gain access to the full version five days early, as well as three day-one DLCs: Late Fees, Back To School and Hello-copter.
While not quite Snakes on a Plane or Red Eye, co-developers Liquid Static Studio and Snapping Turtle have something darker in mind with their upcoming job-sim horror game, Night Plane. Coming to Steam later this year, the game has you doing the expected work as a flight attendant, but with the added bonus of trying to find demons hiding amongst the passengers.
It’s 1999, and it’s your first day on the job. You must do the usual things as a flight attendant: welcoming passengers aboard, check tickets, and attend to their needs. However, shape-shifting entities may attempt to come aboard disguised as humans. So, your additional job in Night Plane is to question passengers, and find a way to remove any unauthorized non-human visitors from the plane.
That also leads to assisting passengers in unorthodox ways inside the plane, outside the plane, and in places not listed in your training manual. To make things even more complicated, you’ll need to make tough decisions with irreversible consequences. Naturally, the company will not be held accountable for any mistakes you make. You live with them.
Oh, and seeing as this is a plane, you may encounter some turbulence while in flight, along with power failures, lightning strikes and more. All of which, including your decisions, will lead to one of the multiple endings in Night Plane.
If you wish to get in on the fun prior to the game’s release, you can sign up for the playtest via the Steam page.
