The highlight of these Nintendo Switch Halloween deals are for 2016’s Oxenfree and its much newer 2023 sequel, Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals. The former normally costs $9.99 on the Nintendo eShop, while the latter normally costs $19.99. In other words, these new deals are courtesy of an 80 percent discount and a 90 percent discount, respectively.

Developed by Night School Studio, Oxenfree released back in the day to an 87 on Metacritic and won a couple awards at the time.. Meanwhile, its sequel debuted to an 85 on Metacritic, and unfortunately for Night School Studio, didn’t cultivate the same level of attention or award season praise as its predecessor.
