Publisher tinyBuild has announced that the long-anticipated sequel to the 2017 stealth horror game Hello Neighbor is being made available to play early for players who have purchased the game’s Deluxe Edition. 

While the official release date hits on December 6th, pre-orders of the Deluxe Edition of Hello Neighbor 2 are now unlocked, and players will be able to access all of the content and the three day-one DLCs several days early. 

Developed by tinyBuild and Eerie Guest,  Hello Neighbor 2 sees players take the role of Quentin, an investigative journalist. He is trying to get to the bottom of the secrets surrounding the notorious Mr Peterson, the villain of the first game. Unlike the first Hello Neighbor, there is more than just a house to explore. 

Players will be let loose into a whole neighborhood, with several different AI antagonists that they’ll need to outrun and outsmart in order to succeed. Staying one step ahead isn’t easy though, the residents will learn Quentin’s tricks and react accordingly.

The Deluxe Edition of Hello Neighbor 2 is available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Playstation 4, Playstation 5 and PC via Steam.

The Standard Edition will be available December 6th, for Playstation 5, Playstation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. Gamepass subscribers will be able to play for free.
