In Double Fine’s triumphant return to Auburn Pines, our candy-crazed crusaders Wren and Reynold must once again protect Halloween from untold horrors, and grown-ups!

Trick, treat and pick a fight with demented dental soldiers in Costume Quest 2.

This inspired RPG adventure includes a range of new features and gameplay improvements to double the amount of  mischievous fun. Explore spooky time-traversing landscapes, don adorable new costumes that  transform into powerful Hallo-warriors, and collect even Creepier Treat Cards to wield in combat  against a legion of hygiene obsessed baddies. Greatness awaits!

Recapture your youth as Wren and Reynold, heroic candy‐crazed crusaders who must travel through time to save Halloween from the villainous dentist Dr. Orel. This pro‐tooth overlord is  hellbent on stopping dental decay and the night of frights that promotes it.

Halloween is all about the costumes, and this year Double Fine has teamed up with Sony to bring the one and only Sackboy to the Costume Quest universe. Available as a hidden bonus, players must seek out the four pieces to assemble this legendary ensemble. In explore mode, Sackboy is a true DIY masterpiece fashioned from a burlap sack, buttons, thread and a whole lot of love! While transformed, he takes on his more familiar fabric form to tangle with Dr. White’s demented dental delinquents. During combat Sackboy charges up to deliver the ‘Little Big Beat Down,’ proving big pain can come from small packages. Unleash his fabric fists of fury for yourself when the free Sackboy content goes live in the coming weeks, final release date to follow!
