In the reveal trailer, key items are more obviously laid out to the player, and the addition of a security camera allows players to see the enemy from different angles. Hello Neighbor 2 seems to retain several of these puzzle elements, but they don’t look nearly as illogical or completely random. That can be anything from throwing objects through paintings to find obscure holes to climb through, or stacking boxes up to climb up the side of a house that looks impossible. One of the biggest complaints of Hello Neighbor is how the puzzles are not solved organically, rather the game has you advance through the story by a series of trial-and-error attempts. Hello Neighbor’s gameplay is part stealth, part horror, part ridiculous puzzle solving. The trailer for Hello Neighbor 2, however, seems to take the game from a buggy mess into a real fleshed-out title. Although an online sensation of its own, Hello Neighbor was critically panned at release, sitting at a solid 38 on Metacritic.

The sequel looks to play fairly similar to the original, but this time hosts players in an open-world with a supposedly fully dynamic AI stalker far more advanced than in the first game.
