Platform:<\/b> PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC
Publisher:<\/b> tinyBuild
Developer:<\/b> tinyBuild
Release:<\/b>

2017’s\u00a0Hello Neighbor gained a bit of a cult following thanks to its popularity in streaming and on YouTube, and since then, fans have been clamoring for a sequel. With that sequel now announced and a release date in sight \u2013 December 6 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC \u2013 developer tinyBuild has released a beta to tide fans over until later this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anyone can access the beta, so long as they preorder the game, and what you’ll find is not a look at the final version of Hello Neighbor 2 but instead a look at what the game is shaping up to be. tinyBuild has promised that the beta is spoiler-free and does not contain story elements from the final game. It’s more like a scenario meant to showcase what the game looks like today, what some of its mechanics feel like, who some of the people in Raven Brooks are, and more. Game Informer<\/em> editor Wesley LeBlanc went hands-on with this demo, and today, he’s joined by fellow associate\u00a0editor John Carson to discuss the first 11 minutes of it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thanks for watching today’s video.<\/p>\n
