One of the least surprising moves Netflix has made during its on-going experiment in video games, was the acquisition of Night School.
The studio is known for its atmospheric, story-driven games, the most famous one being 2016's award-winning graphic adventure game Oxenfree. It made a mobile spin-off game based on Amazon's Mr Robot TV series, and was briefly tasked with making a Stranger Things game with Telltale (before the latter company closed). In other words, Night School sounds like the perfect fit for a TV streaming platform.
The acquisition was announced in September 2021 and now, almost two years later, the Night School team is about to release Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals. We played the game at Summer Games Fest, and it reassuringly played just like Oxenfree – there are certainly no signs of any meddling from Night School's new parent company.
