The game's description promises features like the ability to travel into the past and manipulate the world around you in a bid to save it against the Parentage, a mysterious cult returning from the original Oxenfree. Get to know people from Riley's past and make new friends or ignore them all and face the story's consequences. The game also looks to expand upon its previous dialogue mechanics with a new walkie-talkie system you can use to talk to other characters in the game, as well as the ghostly beings struggling to get through to Camena. The sequel is a direct follow-on, but it picks up 5 years after Oxenfree. The game looks to set up the same ominous presence of its predecessor, with a story centred around unnaturally occurring electromagnetic waves which are causing TVs to turn on and off, radios to broadcast static and other electrical equipment to cut out in chilling ways. It has been marketed as a self-contained story following the adventures of Riley as she travels back to her hometown to uncover the mystery behind the disruptions in the town and eventually stumbles upon something supernatural in the process. Oxenfree 2 tells a decent enough story that ties in smartly with the ending to the first game. Although technically a sequel to Oxenfree, you do not need to have played the original to get a grasp of the story in Oxenfree 2.
