If you're familiar with House Party console commands already, then we're sure you're hyped for what this means for the next DLC. But, if you've not used them, these built-in codes will let you effortlessly do a ton of things with the new character! 🔥




Here are some things console commands will let you do with the new guest:

• Make her chest, head, hands, butt, and feet bigger or smaller
  
• Remove her clothing
  
• Give her various items to hold
  
• Change her personality traits
  
• Boost her friendship, romance, and drunk levels
  
• Have her do various poses for you
  
• Move her to various locations around the house
  
• And play intimacy scenes with her on command!

As mentioned before, custom stories are not approved at this time for use with the House Party - Murder Mystery Expansion Pack guest.

Still, we hope you're stoked for what console commands will mean for the next DLC! They should give you tons of creativity to play the next expansion pack with, so we’re thrilled that she was cool with allowing them!

Do you plan on using console commands with the new guest? Which ones? Be sure to send us plenty of funny console screenshots this Summer, brahs! 🙌





Therefore, we'll be removing some "too-steamy" stuff from our Store Pages, some text in our in-game pre-session and pause screens, and we can no longer share things like future guest "heat levels" in our Steam News posts.

Going forward, if you want any updates on future DLC characters, "steamy" content, and more - join our Discord!

Because, judging by your replies to the Future of House Party Survey so far, a lot of you would love more "🌶️spicy🌶️" content, and we plan to bring that to you; we just can't talk as openly about it anymore!

P.S. The House Party - Murder Mystery Expansion Pack should now be wishlistable in Germany! Thanks for your patience!

So far, you’ve seen Lety called to Madison’s house for an emergency tutoring session 📚, Doja Cat trying to burst down the back fence🕳️, and the Game Grumps falling from the freaking sky into the backyard🦩! So, how will the next guest arrive?

Actually, from the same weird Uber you did.🚕 Seems like he works the neighborhood a lot. But, anyway, when you play the House Party - Murder Mystery Expansion Pack, you'll go about whatever your normal party activities are (no judgment)…until Madison's front doorbell rings. 🔔

But when it rings, things start to get a little... Well, check it out below.



…Yeah. A little whatever the hell that is. Seriously, who wired the lights? Well, it was probably some jerry-rigged home-brew wiring job Patrick did, right? Nothing to get worried about.

Anyway, that unexpected new guest outside looks hot as hell! 🔥 Are you going to let her inside? 🚪



Also, we built House Party based on player feedback, and that's how it became the game it is today. But, as the player base has grown, it's harder for our team to know what the community as a whole wants for the game. 📋

The type of player who enjoys House Party has expanded. Some players ask for more male romanceable NPCs, while others don't want more males. Some community members say they love the Doja Cat DLC, while we’ve heard from many more who just want more NSFW 18+ content. Some commenters want more celebrities in the game, and others want more House Party characters. And some want us to prioritize Office Party, while others want us to keep supporting House Party with fresh content.

It's important to us to make a game that as many of you love as possible. Whether that means adding more characters of different genders, NSFW 18+ guests, or DLCs based around non-guest characters, we want to hear from you!

Fill out our Future of House Party Survey here to share your opinions with us and help make House Party a better game for as many players as possible!

P.S. We've officially started development on the House Party - Murder Mystery Expansion Pack! Want to play early builds as we work on it? Click here to learn more.

P.P.S. Thanks for letting us know that the new DLC wasn't wishlistable in Germany. We think this has to do with recent changes to Steam's mature classifications for games like ours, and we’re looking into fixing it! Join our Discord if you want extra progress updates on this.

The alluring next party guest brings a smoking hot brand new explicit scene to the game in the House Party - Murder Mystery Expansion Pack!

If you have the new DLC and the House Party base game, you'll experience a mind-blowing new sex scene where the new guest will get dirty with you in a hot new cutscene!

It's gonna get filthy, doods and lady-doods. The content will be as NSFW and explicit as the big base game scenes for Madison, Amy, Katherine, Lety, etc. - but it will challenge your stamina more than any other character in the game!



And if you have the House Party - Explicit Content Add-On in your library (and it's enabled in your main menu), you’ll be able to experience the uncut version of the sexy new guest’s deliciously erotic adult encounter!

Plus, you’ll be able to enable POV intimacy for a personalized naughty experience!

Get ready to get nasty with the next guest in her full risqué glory…and solve a crazy murder mystery, too, of course.



What about console commands and custom stories? At this time, the new guest will not be available for use in Custom Stories, and we are currently still working on obtaining consent for use of explicit Console Commands with her!

We'll give you info on if these become available as soon as we know more. For now, we're stoked she's agreed to completely uncensored naughtiness, and we hope you're excited to see the arousing new NSFW scene we have planned for her DLC.

Wondering what to expect? The new guest will officially say hello to everyone very soon, and she'll tell you a bit about what you can expect in the upcoming DLC…

In the meantime, wishlist the House Party - Murder Mystery Expansion Pack and get ready for a wild mix of nuttiness, naughtiness, and noir to come to the party this Summer, brahs!

P.S. Don’t forget to wishlist the free Halloween and Winter Holiday Packs, too. We will have some exciting news to share about them soon!
P.P.S. Want a peek at House Party's development? Join our artist, Zigga, as he textures the game's washer and dryer! Who knows...you might get a secret glimpse at something coming soon, too! 🔥 Watch on Discord today at 2:30PM EST!

Are you ready for your favorite House Party to get wilder, funnier, sexier, and more astounding than ever before? We’ve listened to your feedbaCk, and we’re bringing it together in our next House Party guest DLC!

The House Party - Murder Mystery ExpansiQn Pack will bring the naughtiest party guest yet to the party: an incredible cosplayer, streamer, and actress who is working directly with us to create some of House Party’s sexiest, silliest, and most surprising explicit content yet.

We’re also amping up the party with a new genre of storytelling. Help the new guest solve a grisly murder mystery. Witness a shocking crime, track down clues, catch the culprit, and maybe you’ll grow close enough for the new guest to absolutely rock your world.

The DLC will add hours of jaw-dropping content unlike anything the party has seen before. The lights will go out, terror will break out, and unsolved mysteries will come to light in a thrilling new branching Original Story addition focused on and fully Voice-acted by the exciting new guest!

A stand-in spoileR-free wishlist page for her DLC is up now! Click here to wishlist the House Party - Murder Mystery expansion Pack now!



Speaking of jaw-dropping, Madison will be getting a shock when she looks inside the House Party fridge in the upcoming guest DLC. Why do you think that is?



And did you think that was the only teaser we had for you, brahs? Nah, partiers. It’s finally time to put your secret codes to use!

If you’ve been paying attention to the mysterious codes hidden in our past Steam posts, plug them into our Gleam for access to a special secret teaser video from the upcoming guest DLC! Brace yourself and prepare to be surprised. The party’s getting freaky.

Did you miss the codes? It’s not too late to collect them! Just look through our past four DLC guest teasers (including this one) and keep your eyes peeled for anything that seems a bit…out of place.

P.S. Don’t forget to wishlist the House Party - Halloween Holiday Pack and House Party - Winter Holiday Pack, too! We’re making good progress on getting these ready and can’t wait to share the permanent holidays with you soon!

P.P.S. If you enjoyed sleuthing the codes to unlock the exclusive secret teaser video, tell us below so we can do it again sometime! If you have fun ideas for ways we could do it better, let us know below, too! And what’s with that secret teaser, anyway? Any idea what’s going on?

We hope you all had a great day of love, lust, and lovelies - and spent some quality time cuddled up with the party guest of your choice enjoying a hilarious and adventure-filled night of lusty romance and total debauchery.

Although We’ve temporarily paused our holIday events, we have plenty of future plans, and we think Valentine’s Day would be an awesome fit for the House Party. Comment below if you have any sweet or Juicy ideas you think we should add if we do Valentine’s-themed content in the future!

And let uS know: Who was your House Party Valentine this year?

Don’t forget: If you haven’t played the “A VicKie Vixen Valentine” side-story yet, this weekend is an awesome time to cozy up with your favorite House Party adult star, too!



Also, our next guest will be bringing a trunk full of exciting items to the party when she arrives this Summer!

Note: This is early promo/teaser footage and does not fully reflect how the item will appear in-game - especially once it’s packed full of items!

For now, we’ve pulled the spoiler items out, so we don’t give away too much of the upcoming story, but we’d still love to hear your guesses about what you think our special guest might be toting into Madison’s place!

So, tell us, doods and lady-doods. What do you think will be inside?



P.S. Want to help choose an outfit for House Party’s next guest to wear in their expansion pack? Learn how.

P.P.S. See another hidden code anywhere, partiers?

House Party Version 1.0.9 is out now! If you like getting creative with House Party, you'll love the Custom Story Creator changes we made, doods and lady-doods.

Have you ever dreamed of making a party where everyone gets turned on as soon as you take off your shirt? Or where the whole party gangs up on Patrick? Or where all the guests meet up in the living room for a sweet no-pants-allowed dance party?

Yeah. Us too! That’s why we made it way, way easier to create those kinds of stories and much more with an awesome new feature called "CharacterGroup" behaviors. These let you work faster and more effectively to create more complex stories than ever before.



How does it work? You can now create targeted groups of Characters and use GameEvent, Criteria, Event Trigger, and/or CriteriaGroup behaviors on them selectively or en masse. Not all GameEvents and Criteria are available for use with this system, but this should be super cool nonetheless!

If you've worked with the Custom Story Creator before, you’ll understand the relief and creative potential now that you no longer have to send one-on-one instructions to them. This is huge, dudes!

Character groups should allow there to be more varied custom stories made by both new and experienced creators alike. We're stoked to see how you guys use this sweet new story-crafting superpower.



Several previous issues regarding past updates breaking custom stories have also been fixed, so your current stories should work as intended again! We've made significant optimizations that will notably reduce the UI "lag" experienced when manipulating many CSC elements, dropdowns, text fields, and so on, too.

(Note: The new optimizations required minor changes to the CSC UI. Some functionalities like sorting/arranging elements are now controlled strictly through user-interactable elements like arrows, the copy/paste functions, and insert/remove.)



Update 1.0.9 also irons out some bugs (some of which were not just minor annoyances), adds some story and engine improvements, and includes a fresh new Spanish translation!

We've continued making progress on the user interface and functionality for selecting a holiday DLC pack, too. We still have more mechanics to work on before we can tie DLCs into the engine and bundle the Winter and Halloween holidays into individual downloadable packs, but we're making good progress!

Plus, we added those two new objects around the party that will be used in our next guest expansion pack! If you want a sneak peek at what’s to come, explore the house and let us know what you think the new fixtures will be used for!

Have fun playing, party brahs! We can't wait to see your custom stories.

P.S. Want an example of the fun and silly stories you can create with House Party’s Custom Story Creator? Check out this quick video taken from Peter980’s “Fiery Date” story! To learn more about the story or hang out for our House Party dev streams, join our Discord!

A new quality of life House PArty update will be dropping soon, doods! We're making good progress on some not-so-minor requested bug fixes as well as working on some major Custom Story improvements we hope you'll love!

But there's some neat little bonus easter eggs in the next update, too. While you ruN around Madison's place during your typical night of shenanigans and debauchery, you’ll notice two new objects in the game.

Take a peek at one of them below. Wondering about the other one? Well, you'll have to find it yourselves…

Note: This is early teaser footage and does not fully reflect how the item appears in-game. Anyway, it looks like there might be some electrical issues in the next guest DLC, right? What do you think's going on here?



This new item will be put to use in the upcoming guest DLC arriving this Summer 2023.

We see many of you asking who the next guest will be. We're not trying to keep any secrets (check out those leg tattoos!), but our special guest wants to introduce herself to you personally with a custom costume.

She's working on it noW, so we hope you're stoked for the official announcement and title reveal in March!



In the meantime, don't forget to wishlist the free Halloween and Winter Holiday Packs!

The packs will allow you to enjoy the Halloween and Winter seasonal events whenever you want year-round. We're still working on getting the toggle on/off feature ready, making some tweaks, and packaging everything into organized dLCs. They’ll both be ready within the next few months (ETA of Q1 2023 for Halloween and Q2 2023 for Winter)!

We know these holiday packs are coming out at kind of odd times of the year now. We didn't expect to prep them for perManency and add the toggle feature, but we hope you're still glad we listened to your requests to toggle the content and for the limited-time events to come back permanently!

P.S. Hold onto those codes you deciphered from the last guest teaser. Combining them with the secret code you find in this post might get you closer to that future benefit we mentioned...

If you loved the Halloween event, you might also love what we have in store!

The Winter Holiday Pack is available for wishlisting now, and FREE for all players.

If you enjoyed the Winter Update (or didn’t get the chance to play it while it was around during the holidays), be sure to grab this so you can enjoy the content year-round!

Just like Halloween, it’ll have a toggle on/off feature, so you can enjoy the holiday-themed party whenever you’re feeling the Christmas spirit.

Check out the trailer below, brahs:



Already played the update last holiday season? Don’t worry - there’s plenty more awesome stuff planned for both this and the Halloween Holiday Pack in the future!

In the meantime, your favorite holidays will be back soon. We’re still on track with getting the toggle on/off feature into internal beta testing within the next month or two and releasing the Halloween Holiday Pack permanently this Q1 2023.

The Winter Holiday Pack will follow closely behind on Santa Frank’s sleigh: releasing in Q2 2023!



What’s gonna be in the House Party - Winter Holiday Pack?

Festive seasonal decorations, like:
⭐ Ornaments
☃️ A Snowman
🎄 Pine Garlands
✨ Hanging Lights
🍬 Glowing Candy Canes
🌟 Star-Shaped Lights
❄️ Snowflake Window Decals
🌨️ Lightly Falling Snow Outside
👏 …And Many More To Come!

There will also be cheery Christmas outfits such as:
🎅 Santa & Elf Hats
👕 A Festive Sweater
🎁 …And Many More Costumes & Accessories On The Way!

Plus, you can throw snowballs at other partiers and explore a short seasonal Frank side-quest (with a special holiday achievement)!



Add the DLC to your wishlist, doods and lady-doods, and get ready to enjoy merry and bright decorations, festive outfits, and falling snow all year at the House Party!

Cheers to permanent free holiday content, doods!

Wishlist the Winter Holiday Pack here.

The sexy and hilarious party you know and love will flirt with a bit of blood and darkness this SuMmer. Are you ready, dooDs?

Our next guest wilL ramp up the party with the wildest eXplicit intimacy thus far and most jaw-droppIng story yet!

Get ready for Summer 2023, partiers.


Are you feeling more zen and creative than Madison painting her spirit animals? Or do you just enjoy having the power to create alternate video game universes where Frank isn't typecast as some weird, druggy skinhead and Katherine isn't a stuck-up know-it-all?

This patch isn't live quite yet, but our next update will contain some not-so-minor bug fixes, game optimizations, story and engine improvements, and - best of all - major Custom Story Creator additions. If you're the type of partier who gets creamy about creating personalized House Party stories, you're going to love what we're working on.

This upcoming quality of life update will make it so creators can work faster and more effectively to create more complex stories than ever before. This should make it so more varied custom stories can be created by new and experienced story creators alike. We're hyped to see what kind of party experiences you create!


We're also currently taking steps toward improving Steam Deck performance. Right now, House Party is Playable on the Steam Deck, but we are slowly working toward getting it Verified. We're excited that everyone will be able to enjoy a smoother play experience on the Deck soon!


Also, brahs, did you see Smosh Games made a House Party video? Freaking awesome!

Check out the hilarious video to find out if Ian’s very real parents will let him buy House Party:

Also, we hid something in this announcement that might come in handy in the future, if you're observant enough to find it...

What would the holidays be without our favorite brahs? Thanks so much for booting up House Party and choosing to celebrate winter with us, partiers!

We had an amazing time celebrating the holidays with you, and, although the House Party Winter Event is officially over (for now), you’ll see it again soon.

Just like the House Party - Halloween Holiday Pack, the Winter Event will return as a FREE permanent DLC in the coming months (with a new toggle on/off feature) and receive future content updates! We’ll share more details on this soon.



Adding the holidays was a spur-of-the-moment passion-and-booze-fueled decision, and we didn’t expect the response to be so positive - or for you doods to want permanent versions of the holidays and a toggle feature!

It’s awesome that you enjoyed it so much, and we plan on bringing those things to you as soon as possible! For now, though, we probably need to slow down on creating new holiday content until around Halloween just so we can keep bringing you more House Party updates alongside the holiday stuff!

However, thanks to your feedback, we have tons of awesome plans for future holidays that we can't wait to get started on! While we work on keeping pace with House Party development and polishing Halloween and Winter as permanent DLCs, we'll also try to confirm some of next year's planned holidays so you can give us extra suggestions on content you might like to see!



We also wanted to take a second to showcase these sweet tattoos some of our Discord community members created recently! Tenag made an awesome flower-themed tattoo for fan-favorite girl Ashley, and Nightimeglobe7 created a sick back tattoo for party host Madison.

It’s always super cool to see you guys getting creative and modding the game to how you envision it with reskinning and custom stories. If you want to see more cool community content or learn how to make your own custom tattoos for House Party characters, come hang out on our Discord!
