Gameplay

Players attempt to move items from one location to another while avoiding obstacles. It plays similarly to Moving Out and includes elements of strategy, puzzle, and party video games. Later levels include additional environmental elements not found in the first game, such as one-way doors, teleporters, and time-limited passages. It features single-player and cooperative multiplayer, both online and local.

Online multiplayer is a first for the series. It supports up to four players at once.

Development

Developer SMG Studio is based in Sydney, Australia. Team17 released Moving Out 2 on August 15, 2023.

Reception

Moving Out 2 received positive reviews on Metacritic. Although they criticized the single-player game for not being as much fun, IGN said the co-op gameplay is "as challenging as it is charming" and praised its humor. Nintendo Life praised the environments, scenarios, humor, and multiplayer, but they criticized the performance on Switch. Slant Magazine called it a "fun-packed, faster-paced, wackier sequel" and said its silliness rests on "enjoyable, rock-solid gameplay".

Push Square said Moving Out 2 "can get a little repetitive" and the gameplay is "quite familiar", but they said it is "a solid good time" when played in bursts. They recommended it to fans of Overcooked and ultimately found it to be "a successful follow-up" to Moving Out.
