FAQ
When did TOEM 2 come out?
29 September 2026. The Steam store page lists Sep 29, 2026 as the release date and shows the game as released rather than coming soon, and the official Something We Made site is marked Out Now for the same date.
How much does TOEM 2 cost?
$16.99 in the US on Steam at launch, which is a 15 percent discount off the $19.99 list price. That introductory figure comes from the Steam price data, so the price may return to $19.99 after the offer window ends.
Which platforms did TOEM 2 launch on?
Windows, macOS and Linux on Steam, plus PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 1 and Switch 2. The Steam listing confirms the desktop platforms, and the official site links the PlayStation 5 and Switch store pages alongside Steam under its Out Now banner.
Was there a TOEM 2 demo before release?
Yes. A press preview published in June 2026 describes playing the TOEM 2 demo and shows an updated 3D visual style plus the new jumping and climbing. The demo predates the 29 September 2026 launch and covered a single town rather than the full four-region game.
Is TOEM 2 a sequel to the first TOEM?
Yes. Wikipedia describes it as the sequel to TOEM: A Photo Adventure, from the same Swedish studio Something We Made, published by Something We Made and popagenda. The story is set a few years after the original, which is why the official site talks about returning as a more grown-up photographer.
