Oxenfree Release Window Revealed

Share.
Coming January 2016.

Supernatural adventure game Oxenfree is coming to Xbox One and Windows 10 in January 2016, Night School Studio and Microsoft announced today.

The idea of Oxenfree is to "play a coming of age story where you determine how the protagonist comes of age. Then set it all against a ghost story," studio co-founder Sean Krankel said in an interview with Xbox Wire. "It's like Freaks & Geeks set against this super-f***ed-up phenomena,” Krankel told IGN earlier this year.

Oxenfree is the first game from Night School Studio, which is headed up by ex-Telltale and ex-Disney developers. The voice cast includes Erin Yvette (The Wolf Among Us, Tales from the Borderlands) and Gavin Hammon (The Walking Dead, The Wolf Among Us).
