We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Adventure players who enjoy stealth-based investigations
- Mystery fans who want an open-world setting

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking combat-focused action or conventional RPG progression may find the investigation and infiltration structure limited.
- Those wanting a tightly linear mystery may not enjoy moving among multiple houses and suspicious residents.
- Players looking for a standalone story may not want a game that follows the events of the original Hello Neighbor.
Our take on Hello Neighbor 2
Rather than placing the mystery in a fixed sequence of scenes, the game spreads the investigation across Raven Brooks and its inhabited houses. Sneaking into homes and collecting evidence take the place of a conventional linear detective structure.
What is Hello Neighbor 2?
Quentin, a reporter, investigates strange events linked to the first Hello Neighbor title in Raven Brooks.
After authorities reach Mr Peterson’s home, where children were confined below the house, he searches locations tied to the crimes and private residences for proof and leads. The town forms a broad explorable setting containing several occupied homes and residents whose behavior raises suspicion. Artificial-intelligence-controlled townspeople move through Raven Brooks. Quentin assembles the case while pursuing Mr Peterson, known as the unsettling Neighbor. The Deluxe Edition adds extra neighbors with individual characteristics, further areas to visit, specialized tools for examining evidence, and three DLC packs: Back to School, Late Fees, and Hello-copter.
