Spooky spirits and fiendish phantoms will be joining the action in Two Point Museum, as the haunted Wailon Lodge has been revealed as the latest playable museum location.

Once serving as a quaint, cosy holiday location for Two Point County in its prime, Wailon Lodge now lies in ruin, considered too remote, too old-fashioned and too close to the Netherworld Rift for the living. The Lodge is now overshadowed by tales of furniture moving by itself, a dreadful train whistle echoing across the valley and other blood-curdling rumours.

As Curator, your task is to join the ghostly front-of-house Winston Wailon and discover show-stopping exhibits that will turn the old haunted hotel into a bustling location once more. Create immersive Polterguest Rooms to turn wandering spirits into museum guests and send expeditions into the neighbouring Netherworld Rift, treating its historic remnants with care and respecting the eerie past of the relics.

Wailon Lodge joins Memento Mile and Passwater Cove as one of the many playable locations in Two Point Museum, the upcoming innovative management sim where players can design the museum of their dreams, curate fascinating exhibits, and oversee every aspect of their guests’ experiences.

Two Point Museum will be available on PC, PS5 and XBOX X/S on March 4th, 2025, with advanced access unlocking on February 27th for those who pre-order the digital Explorer Edition. To learn more, head to www.twopointstudios.com and follow Two Point Museum on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter.

In Titan Quest II, you’ll forge your path to heroism by choosing between unique masteries and combining any two to create a class that’s all your own. At the start of Early Access, you’ll have Earth, Storm, and Warfare masteries at your fingertips, with even more options arriving in future updates to keep your journey fresh and full of potential.

With these, you can take customization to a whole new level, building a character that reflects your playstyle far beyond the usual skill combinations.

Our mission? To make you feel like a hero blessed by the gods themselves, with the power to shape your fate. Choose your blessings wisely and wield them in the epic battle against Nemesis!
