Next Stop Nowhere, an Apple Arcade Exclusive, Is the Next Title from the Oxenfree & Afterparty Dev

Night School Studio, the team behind Oxenfree and Afterparty, has announced its next title, Next Stop Nowhere. The game will be an exclusive release for Apple Arcade.

Next Stop Nowhere follows a young courier named Beckett. He meets Serra, a former bounty hunter, and in a chain of events goes on a road trip throughout outer space. They must fly across the galaxy to save Serra’s son, Eddy, while avoiding the dangers they encounter in deep space throughout their journey.

Couldn't we all use a galactic road trip right about now?

The game features a branching dialogue system that shapes Beckett’s relationships and how the story unfolds. Beckett’s ship also comes with its own personality that he can chat with, and Next Stop Nowhere‘s narrative is supported by a lively cast of voice actors.

Outer space is colorful, filled with asteroids that need to be dodged while in the ship, and also different orbits for the player to explore. Additionally, the 1.3 GB title supports cross-device play through Apple Arcade with iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple TV.

Next Stop Nowhere is compatible with macOS 10.15.0 or later and requires iOS 13.0 or later. Many different languages are supported as well, including English, Arabic, German, Korean, Traditional Chinese, and more. A release date has not yet been announced, but Night School Studio says it is coming “very soon.”
