Unlike in the original Hello Neighbor, there is little in the sequel that can be said to be important to the story, and secrets are no exception. The plot doesn’t really progress past what fans already learned about from previous games and it seems unlikely that that will change in future updates.

Manager Louis van Gaal handed debuts to right-back Matteo Darmian, midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin and forward Memphis Depay, as the team lined up in a hybrid 4-4-2/4-3-3 formation.

Because it’s in the UK you won’t be required to pay import duty, which is an advantage over grey-market sites such as GearBest and Geekbuying (where it also costs more, at £239....
