Night School Studio, the developer behind supernatural mystery graphic adventure Oxenfree, has today released the first trailer for its follow-up title, Afterparty.
The game, which was first revealed at the end of last year, follows the story of two recently deceased best friends, Milo and Lola, who finds themselves in a neon-stricken hell. The only way out? To outdrink Satan on a manic, debauched, drunken pub crawl.
In the trailer above, we get a glimpse at the game's striking visual style. It looks like it will play out not entirely dissimilar to the wonderful Oxenfree, which yours truly reviewed favourably but felt got a little convoluted towards the end. But nevertheless, Night School Studio knows how to make a good game.
Afterparty is confirmed for release in 2019, and while there's currently no confirmation of a release on Sony hardware, we'd be surprised if it didn't make it over. So, what's your beverage of choice? Let us know in the entirely sober comments section below.

I liked Oxenfree so this might be worth a shot. However if they fix one thing from oxenfree, they should make it easier to replay. Oxenfree had dozens of endings, but I never felt like I should go past 2 play throughs because I got so bored doing the same things over and over again.
So excited for this one! Oxenfree's one of my favorites (indie or no) of the generation, so anything Night School wants to do is okay in my book!
I love the premise, and the art looks great. One to watch!
I'd likely buy another game from the Oxenfree producers; that game had such a good 'soundscape' I wasn't too bothered by its other deficits.
What's this? A game with an original concept that doesn't follow the same old, same old? Madness!
With this concept, visual style, and the writing of Oxenfree, it's bound to be good. Can't wait to see more.
Oxenfree easily exceeded my expectations. I am definitely up for this.
Think I was enticed here under a false premise. I only wanted to say Iām really into peroni right now
Really enjoyed Oxenfree, so will definitely keep a lookout for this.
I enjoyed Oxenfree, so I'll probably like this.
I hope this one comes to Limited Run i just love those covers. š
This looks fun! I have Oxenfree and have got near the end but haven't gotten round to going back and finishing it. I like it enough, but once I do finish it that will be enough for me. Won't bother with multiple playthroughs.
I dunno not super keen, i loved oxenfree but this art style looks a little meh to me
