Werewolves howl Phantoms prowl Halloween's upon us now!
Grab your projectile weapons pumpkins! Our favorite holiday has come again to Raven Brooks and we are excited to announce the Secret Neighbor Paranormal Update is LIVE NOW on Steam! Check out the trailer below and lets dive in!
đ»The Neighbor is going Ghost!
There is a rumor going around town that a ghastly specter has been sighted near Mr. Peterson's house, eyewitnesses report it's arrival is heralded by flickering lights and glowing blue ectoplasm.
Introducing: The Ghost Neighbor! His abilities include a spectral ghost transformation capable of flight and phasing through walls, and an ultimate ability that can temporarily disable every light within close proximity. Direct light keeps this apparition from transforming out of ghost form, so your flashlights are now more important than ever when trying to stay out of his ghostly grasp!
đ§No costume? No problem!
October has flown by and before you know it you're 4 days out from Halloween without a costume, oh no! But not to worry, we've got you covered! A new Scary Neighbor werewolf skin, New Ghost Neighbor Genie skin and a shambling hoard of zombie skins for the Neighborhood Rescue Squad will scare you up at least 3rd place in any costume contest!
Of course all maps are decked out in their Halloween finest, and you'll find no shortage of jack-o'-lanterns carved with care. Players will also note that most walls now sport a light switch in game. If you suddenly find yourself in the dark with the Neighbor in Ghost form and need to keep him from changing back, make a run for the nearest light switch! Steam players will also be treated to some new LE offerings, plus a brand new LE only brawl mode - Racing - to really put your creative skills to the test!

The days are long, the nights are warm, and we are excited to announce that the Golden Apple Amusement Park Update is officially live on Steam! This update includes a brand-new map, graphical updates, emotes, trophies and much more! Check out the latest episode of Secret Neighborhood News for a comprehensive overview and first look!
Map #5 is here!
Take a trip outside the Neighborhood and explore the (in)famous abandoned Amusement Park in a brand new map! Can you uncover the mysteries of the now-defunct funfair from Mr. Petersonâs past, or will tragedy strike again? Remember, your foe will stop at nothing to keep you and your friends from discovering the truth!
With a largely open-air environment, upon entry you will note that our 5th map it is vastly different from previous maps in both looks and layout. It also will sport a 4th keycard door, so keep a sharp eye out! Aside from layout and location, this map sports a few other new features as well:
In a nod to the original Hello Neighbor (as well as a longstanding community request) tomato plants are making their debut on map #5! Snag one in passing and hurl it into the eyes of your attacker to thwart their advance! đ
Lost your flashlight or need a last minute powerup? New vending machines could give you an edge over your enemy when you need it most. đ§
New Skins + Emotes!
Stop by the Shop to select a fresh fit with a roster of new skins! The circus may have shut its doors, but youâll still see lions in the big top with The Neighborâs new skin!
While youâre there, check out the new Emotion section and snag one of three new Neighbor Emotes to inflict a little psychological damage on your foes. - The emote wheel is now also customizable!
New tutorial and trophy room
Brush up on the basics with a brand new Tutorial mode, accessible via the main lobby. Get a hands-on overview of in-game items & how to use them or play through a brief single-player tutorial + character-specific challenges that let you learn a new class on the fly!
Earn and display your achievements in the brand new Trophy room - a new section available via the lobby. Currently, there are three interactable trophies - obtainable via completing easter eggs!
Overall ambiance update
Almost every source of light has been revamped, and you may find flashlights are now more important than ever, lest your foe sneak up on you in the darkness! Itâs not just lighting that's gotten an upgrade though, as new partially interactable vegetation and particle systems now lend to the overall ambiance.
The Match End screen has also been updated to more accurately reflect the excitement of winning a match...or the despair of losing one.

Secret Neighbor: Hello Neighbor Multiplayer - Peli
Hey everyone!
While we're cooking up some news regarding the Secret Neighbor Summer update to share with you soon, we wanted to share an amazing milestone that we've recently hit - 1 million players on iOS!
As a token of our appreciation to our community across all platforms, we've rolled out a small celebration sale, also across all platforms! Enjoy the Space Set at around -50% discount up until next Monday!
We are so excited to announce that Secret Neighbor is now available on iOS devices worldwide, and you can play it for free!
As this is our first time bringing the game to mobile there are some key differences between this and previous versions, and there are a few different ways to play so letâs jump into it and see which one suits you the best!
Secret Neighbor iOS is free to download + play!
Secret Neighbor is free to download and play on iOS! From the start, only Bagger and Scary Neighbor classes are available, while all the other classes are unlockable through gameplay.
Coupons & Coins
Everyone loves to express themselves, and what better way to do it than with a fire fit? Get access to our newest accessories and premium cosmetics with Arcade Coupons!
Arcade Coupons are a recently introduced form of hard currency in Secret Neighbor and have taken the place of cash purchases. You are able to purchase Arcade Coupons in four different quantities and they are used to buy the fanciest costumes! Additionally, Secret Neighbor has daily quests that award you coupons just for playing!
Coins are collected through gameplay - these are then used to unlock additional player and Neighbor classes, as well as to buy costumes. Unlocking all the classes with coins is definitely possible, but it does take some dedication, so make sure you do some research on the class youâre about to unlock - we recommend our TinyTips series on YouTube for that! https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4nWU0IcZ3kjxhZ53NTosIpTEKwBUIRb7
Secret Club Subscription
And, of course, thereâs the all new, mobile only Secret Club subscription. Joining the Secret Club instantly unlocks all the classes for you, gives you an additional daily quest, and grants you a 4X daily coupon multiplier boost! There will also be additional perks rolled out to Secret Club members later on in the clubâs lifetime as well.
Time for math:
$3 - monthly subscription cost $2 - monthly subscription cost if you purchase a 6 months subscription for $12
240 - maximum amount of coupons earned in a month (without the subscription) 1200 - maximum amount of coupons earned in a month (with the subscription). Or, if you were to purchase coupons directly, thatâs $8 worth of coupons!
And thatâs all on top of access to all the classes in the game!
We hope this breakdown helped you figure out the best way to play Secret Neighbor iOS for you!
Weâre so excited to bring Secret Neighbor to yet another new platform this year and canât wait to see you and your friends in the game!
Catch you later! tinyFox, tinyBuild & the HoloGryph team
Secret Neighbor: Hello Neighbor Multiplayer - Peli
Hey everyone!
Today we're bringing you some exciting updates to the Level Editor, as well as share our plans for the rest of the year! Let's get started.
Level Editor Updates
In 2020 weâve had some amazing maps created by our community in the Level Editor. 2021 is the year when we start transforming it into something more - Game Mode Editor. Weâll start relatively small - youâll be able to choose between pre-made rules presets. In this update, you already have a game mode selector with all the brawls available.
Next step - youâll be able to create your own rules from scratch, which means the possibility will be endless. And, of course, weâll continue working on the Level Editor, giving more tools to our creators.
Check out the whole changelog for the Level Editor below.
New Costumes
Of course, this wouldn't be a Secret Neighbor update without some new costumes! Oh, and we hope you're enjoying the new coupon system - let us know in the comments how you'd want to see it evolve.
The 2021 Roadmap
We've already changed the game quite a bit this year - we've added a lot of quality of life improvements, implemented daily quests, added brawl mode rotation - but there's a lot more to come! Check out the roadmap video:

Weâve just wrapped up The Hello Neighbor Showcase, our online direct event outlining the many new and exciting updates to come throughout the Hello Neighbor Franchise. In case you missed the event letâs go over what you can look forward to in the coming months!
Secret Neighbor is sneaking onto a platform near you!
Itâs been hard to keep this secret locked up but itâs escaped the basement and finally, we can share it.
Weâre excited to announce that Secret Neighbor will be coming to PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and iOS! Pre orders for Secret Neighbor on PlayStation will open on March 30th. The full game release for PlayStation and iOS will be April 29th, and release plans for Secret Neighbor on Switch will be announced later this Summer. Another important update, our PlayStation and iOS versions will be cross-play compatible!
In addition to this, we are working hard to provide all platforms a parity of content and synchronized updates in the future and will keep you updated on our progression towards this goal. Our 2021 Secret Neighbor Development Roadmap will also be on its way to you in the coming weeks, so keep a sharp eye out for even more updates very soon!
Hello Neighbor 2 - The AI takeover
Hello Neighbor 2 is nearing its crucial development stage and we are working hard on Alpha 2. There have been some big updates to the AI. Mr. Peterson is now even more capable of learning from previous player behavior in order to plan new ways to thwart you from learning his dark secrets.
But not just Mr. Peterson, every character you encounter in Hello Neighbor 2 will share the same AI core...though their motivations and stories may differ.
Hello Engineer - Full steam ahead
Hello Engineer Beta Testing is currently in progress and we will be sharing more exciting news on its development soon. In the meantime, check out some fun gifs!
The Guest is back and heâs...huggable?
In partnership with our friends at Snap Creative, we are very excited to bring you The Guest Musical Plush!
He is poseable, with wired limbs and a swivel head. And he has not one but two music boxes! Press his belly to play music, or press his bag for a surprise!
He is made from soft cotton fabrics and approximately 10.5â tall. Pre-orders are now open and the estimated delivery of this cuddly menace is September 2021.
And last but not least, over the past few months weâve been working behind the scenes to update and improve Hello Neighbor mobile version performance and gameplay and will continue to make some additional updates moving forward.
Thank you for checking our The Hello Neighbor Showcase!
Catch you later! tinyFox, tinyBuild & the HoloGryph team
