It’s time to dust off your creative hats because Two Point Museum is officially gearing up for its grand release on March 4, 2025. Whether you’re a fan of building quirky hospitals in Two Point Hospital or managing chaotic campuses in Two Point Campus, you’re going to want to keep your eye on this latest project from Two Point Studios and SEGA Europe. Pre-orders are now live across all major platforms (PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S), and if you’re on the fence, the pre-order bonuses might just sway you into carting this one early.
To kick things off, Two Point Museum promises to deliver the same signature humor and charm the franchise is known for, but this time? It’s all about curating masterpieces, assembling exhibits, and designing the most bizarre, yet fascinating, museums you could imagine. You’ll have the freedom to create everything from art galleries and natural history halls to obscure, off-the-wall collections that challenge the definition of “classic exhibits.” It’s all about building the ultimate museum empire—no idea is too strange!
What You Get for Pre-Ordering
If you need a little extra incentive, Two Point Studios has rolled out some juicy pre-order bonuses. Players who lock in their purchase early will get access to exclusive in-game content. Here’s what’s up for grabs:
-
The Prehistoric Exhibit Pack: Become the star curator with access to special prehistoric-themed items, from interactive dinosaur skeletons to displays exploring the dawn of civilization. Nothing screams “museum prestige” quite like a massive T-Rex looming over your guests as they sip overpriced coffee.
-
Classical Art Bundle: Fancy some timeless elegance? This bundle throws in famous paintings and sculptures that can give your gallery wing a classy and cultured vibe. Now you can have Mona Lisa smirking at visitors in pixelated glory.
-
Unique Staff Uniforms: Deck out your museum staff with quirky, exclusive outfits that range from “art snob chic” to “archaeologist on a budget.” Your employees will be trolling through the exhibits in style—who said running a museum wasn’t a fashion-forward gig?
What You Can Expect from the Game
Like Two Point’s previous titles, Two Point Museum will give players a lot of freedom when it comes to how they want to run their establishment. Whether you lean into the absurd or aim to create a genuine world-class institution, the game offers a wide range of customization options and management mechanics. You’ll be overseeing the day-to-day operations, handling visitor happiness, and even making sure your museum stays profitable (because, yes, art isn’t cheap).
From rotating exhibits to permanent displays, there’s a whole strategy to figure out. Do you cater to the masses or go niche? Maybe your museum will specialize in deep dives into ancient civilizations, or maybe you’ll choose to curate modern art installations that leave guests scratching their heads. Whatever your approach, you can expect the same depth of management that’s both fun and hilariously challenging.
But what about expansion? Two Point Studios loves to keep players on their toes with additional content and updates post-launch, so pre-ordering just might be your way into early content drops. Keep your eyes peeled on their official website and Twitter page for more updates as launch day approaches.
Tips for Getting Started
If Two Point Museum follows the formula of its predecessors, you’ll want to pay close attention to a few key elements once you get started:
-
Balance your budget: While it’s tempting to fill your museum with all the coolest stuff from the get-go, remember to pace yourself financially. A museum with a giant woolly mammoth in the lobby is cool, but nothing ruins a visit like broken toilets or unhappy staff.
-
Keep an eye on your guests: Like in Two Point Hospital and Campus, guest happiness will be crucial. Think benches, gift shops, and plenty of restrooms—it’s the small things that keep those ticket sales flowing.
-
Hire strategically: Just like your museums’ exhibits, your staff matters. Keep an eye on their skills and unique quirks (staff with high creativity might bring in more visitors), but also be wary of hiring staff who are lazy or prone to causing chaos. Your museum should be a place of learning and wonder, not a reality TV show!
With release day still a few months out, there’s plenty of time to get hyped, and maybe even start sketching out your dream museum designs. Head to Steam or your platform of choice and secure those pre-order goodies while you can!
