No it’s not a belated April fools prank, Hello Neighbor 2 pre-orders are NOW LIVE! We’re super excited and have so much to go over so read on to hear more about our long-awaited Beta, brand new launch-day devlog, sweet new merch, and the Hello Neighbor 2…Deluxe Edition?!? 👀
We know you’ve been dying to book your ticket back to Raven Brooks, and starting today you can officially pre-order the long-awaited sequel to the original stealth horror hit! But in even better news, all pre-order players will be granted instant access to our pre-order exclusive Beta!
So what can you look forward to in the Beta and how do you get your mitts on it? Let’s get into it. You may have noticed there are two editions currently available for pre-order. The Hello Neighbor 2 Standard Edition pre-order will contain the full game on launch + instant Beta access once your pre-order is completed. Now for the the Deluxe Edition, both versions will grant you Beta access but of course, the Deluxe Edition comes with a few pretty sweet extras. Namely, 3 brand new DLC available on launch, and 5 days of Early Access to the game prior to its full release on December 6th, 2022!
The Beta itself is what we like to call the Encapsulated Hello Neighbor 2 Beta Experience. While Hello Neighbor 2 is still in development, we're excited to bring you a taste of what visiting Raven Brooks will look and feel like with many of its new locations, residents, and visuals. Certain gameplay elements such as breakable windows and boxes will be waiting for you in the full release. And did we mention the Beta is spoiler-free? We’re saving all of the biggest secrets for launch day so feel free to dive right in!

Secret Neighbor is sneaking onto a platform near you!
It’s been hard to keep this secret locked up but it’s escaped the basement and finally, we can share it.
We’re excited to announce that Secret Neighbor will be coming to PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and iOS! Pre orders for Secret Neighbor on PlayStation will open on March 30th. The full game release for PlayStation and iOS will be April 29th, and release plans for Secret Neighbor on Switch will be announced later this Summer. Another important update, our PlayStation and iOS versions will be cross-play compatible!
In addition to this, we are working hard to provide all platforms a parity of content and synchronized updates in the future and will keep you updated on our progression towards this goal. Our 2021 Secret Neighbor Development Roadmap will also be on its way to you in the coming weeks, so keep a sharp eye out for even more updates very soon!
Hello Neighbor 2 - The AI takeover
Hello Neighbor 2 is nearing its crucial development stage and we are working hard on Alpha 2. There have been some big updates to the AI. Mr. Peterson is now even more capable of learning from previous player behavior in order to plan new ways to thwart you from learning his dark secrets.
But not just Mr. Peterson, every character you encounter in Hello Neighbor 2 will share the same AI core...though their motivations and stories may differ.
Hello Engineer - Full steam ahead
Hello Engineer Beta Testing is currently in progress and we will be sharing more exciting news on its development soon. In the meantime, check out some fun gifs!
The Guest is back and he’s...huggable?
In partnership with our friends at Snap Creative, we are very excited to bring you The Guest Musical Plush!
He is poseable, with wired limbs and a swivel head. And he has not one but two music boxes! Press his belly to play music, or press his bag for a surprise!
He is made from soft cotton fabrics and approximately 10.5” tall. Pre-orders are now open and the estimated delivery of this cuddly menace is September 2021.
