Three years after taking on Brexit in Not Tonight, publisher No More Robots and developer PanicBarn are working on a sequel to the satirical political RPG. Not Tonight 2 takes place in an alternate version of the US, where "capitalism and political greed have taken center stage and democracy is a thing of the past."
The action takes place across the US as three characters — Malik, Kevin and Mari — try to save their friend Eduardo from deportation or another terrible fate. Not Tonight 2 centers around three intertwined, branching stories written by a group of POC artists and authors.
The original game drew comparisons to Papers, Please for its core gameplay of checking IDs as a bouncer at pubs and nightclubs. Those mechanics are back in the sequel, along with a variety of minigames. Those include everything from word association and rhythm games to working at the border wall, joining a cult and serving poutine to Canadians.
More than 400,000 people have played Not Tonight, which landed on Nintendo Switch last year. Not Tonight 2 should arrive in 2021.
