Moving Out 2 has gotten an official release date, set for August 15th, 2023. The sequel to Moving Out from developer Team17, has players working together to move furniture out of various locations, and while it sounds rather simple, the gameplay easily becomes chaotic and challenging. Players have to rely on communication and logic within the tight environments.
Alongside the release date announcement came a new trailer showing off the new labyrinthine locations movers will navigate through to move furniture out. From a beachside resort, a castle with rotating rooms, a farm full of animals, and much more, the challenge remains.
One of the highly requested features now coming to Moving Out 2 is the introduction of online co-op, along with cross play. Previously the first Moving Out was simply local co-op, where up to four players could work together right next to one another.
In a press release of the new features coming to Moving Out 2, Team17 specifies:
- Location, location, location: Travel the multiverse and overcome new levels and puzzles that pit F.A.R.Ts with their biggest removals challenge yet.
- Co-op Continued: Players can either take on Moving Out 2 solo or with friends (or enemies) in both couch and cross-play enabled online co-op.
- Assist mode: Movers of all abilities are welcome in Packmore; with Assist Mode, the possibilities (and fun) are endless, and inclusive!
- Zany characters: Featuring a whole new host of smooth movers, Moving Out 2 showcases entirely new characters that will both enchant and horrify.
A demo will also be made available next week beginning Monday the 19th for PC users through the Steam Next Fest event. The demo will include 6 levels for players to get an early taste of what the sequel will bring.
Moving Out 2 will be available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC.
