Oxenfree developer Night School Studio has announced that its next game Afterparty, which was first mentioned at the end of last year, will definitely be coming to the Switch.
Afterparty is an adventure game about two protagonists Milo and Lola, a pair of recently deceased best friends who find themselves facing an eternity in Hell. Luckily for them, though, there is one loophole: those who can outdrink Satan can return to Earth. Every step of the game is up to you, as you uncover the mystery of why you’ve been damned - and drink the big guy under the table.
Here are some key features for you to check out:
Features:
- Party as two best friends: Control Milo and Lola with an intelligent conversation system that changes the story and your relationships based on every decision. Uncover their personality quirks and foggy history during the wild events of the night
- Drink for your lives: Hell bars offer a variety of libations, each with different Liquid Courage effects to imbue Milo and Lola with specialized dialogue options and abilities
- Demonic activities: The underworld’s pubs are packed with drunken games to pass the time. Beer pong, dance-offs, karaoke and chugging competitions all mesh with the dynamic dialogue system for a seamless narrative bender
- Change Hell forever: Players’ actions won’t only affect Milo and Lola, but also the people and places of Hell. Finishing a quest on one island might result in the total destruction of another
- Flirt with Satan
- Explore an interconnected network of underworld islands via the River Styx
- An original soundtrack by scntfc (OXENFREE, Sword & Sworcery)
The game is scheduled to launch on Switch in 2019. Will you be keeping tabs on this one?

Just weird enough that I will be keeping tabs on this one, yes.
I liked Oxenfree and its gameplay so I'd probably get this one as well.
Flirt with Satan is indeed a positive for this game. This looks really cool but I wasn't too keen on Oxenfree so i'm not sure about this.
Bonkers in an ironic laid back way. Looking forward to seeing more, they'll need to invent some new novelties to keep the format fresh.
I was happily surprised by Oxenfree. Was not convinced enough by reviews until it went on a sale. Ended up entirely engrossed in it. Absolutely loved everything except the loading times.
Definitely will try this one.
So I assume there's not a single Slav in Hell then?
(before anyone gets uppity, I'm one too)
Oxenfree was a unique surprise. I don't see myself playing this one, but who knows...?
Excellent, Oxenfree was a great game and I look forward to playing this one too.
I was so happy to see this game. Let's drink the demons under the table!
@Nunya what did u not like?
I really liked Oxenfree, so I'll get this for sure.
I thought Oxenfree was trash to be quite frank; annoying characters, pacing was far too slow and the story was anticlimactic. Yes, I played through it twice and it certainly wasn't worth the effort.
day one purchase for me. loved oxenfree but the plot of this is way more up my alley.
Oxenfree is so good, glad this is coming to Switch.
Looks pretty nice.
