My Friendly Neighborhood is a puppet-filled survival horror game that puts players in the work boots of Gordon, a repairman tasked with shutting down the sudden broadcast of a canceled children's TV show titled The Friendly Neighborhood. Back in the day, the loveable show lit up TV screens and the smiling faces of children all across the world. Fans loved its colorful cast of kooky puppets who took them on educational adventures and delighted them with fun games. But the show's popularity waned over time, and the studio had to ultimately shut its doors. Now the show's characters are back on the air for an encore ... wait, are they eating each other!?
Featuring a mix of action and adventure, My Friendly Neighborhood is the perfect game for horror fans looking for solid and surprising scares rather than gore. Sure, there might not be any dead bodies, dismemberment, or decapitations, but don't expect your new puppet pals to stay down for good. They demand hugs — intense, painful hugs.
In celebration of the two-year anniversary of the Steam release of My Friendly Neighborhood, developer siblings John and Evan Szymanski and indie horror publisher DreadXP are pleased to announce that the comedic survival horror will be coming to consoles in just two days, on July 17.
This port expands the availability of the adventure to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S, and will be available on Game Pass for Xbox and Windows.
