As Night School Studio builds towards next year’s release Oxenfree II: lost signals, some spooky novelties have been added in 2016 No oxen. Returning to the Steam version of this game today (when adapted) will allow you to discover some new radio broadcasts that hint at the plot of the sequel.

If you do not touch the original No oxen, then first of all, play one of the best video games ever made! Ahem. Also, more immediately, it was a narrative adventure about a group of teenagers who spent a weekend on an island, a former military base, which is now rumored among local youth as the source of supernatural and creepy radio signals.

During their time there, reality begins to unfold, they separate and struggle desperately to make their way through the supernatural events that haunt them. Your role is to control one of the children, Alex, guiding their conversations as you explore, allowing for an extraordinary variety of how everything unfolds. And now, there’s even more variety, with radio signals being a key part of the game updated to include mysterious messages from the sequel’s antagonists. Antagonists seemingly so powerful that they can break the fourth wall and infiltrate the past.

The first game did not have an unequivocal bad character; things were left much more esoteric than that. So it’s interesting to know that when the original character Riley returns to his hometown five years later for more mysterious radio business, there will be a more definite enemy. Apparently, they are a collective called Parentage, and you can get information about their members by going back to No oxen via Steam.

It’s a neat idea, no doubt, but when studio director Sean Krankel explain IGN, “Presenting the antagonists in an interesting way seemed like an appealing and engaging thing to me instead of having a trailer just centered on them,” I can’t help but think: yes, but I’d already seen the trailer.

These super deep dive things are definitely fun and I can fully see why a game studio with such a heavy weight in their game sees it as the most exciting approach to triggering the sequel, but it’s also the way it is. has the smallest number of people. going to see it. Playing a game from five years ago is one great ask your audience if you want them to see what advertisements are essentially. And that feels like a nuisance no doing this may mean you have less context when playing in 2022 Without Bulls II. Again, there is always YouTube.
