Two Point Campus Developer Two Point Studios Publisher Sega Directors Gary Carr Mark Webley Engine Unity[1] Platforms Linux macOS Nintendo Switch PlayStation 4 PlayStation 5 Windows Xbox One Xbox Series X/S Release 9 August 2022 Genre Business simulation Mode Single-player

***Two Point Campus*** is a [business simulation game](/source/Business_simulation_game) developed by [Two Point Studios](/source/Two_Point_Studios) and published by [Sega](/source/Sega). It is a successor to *[Two Point Hospital](/source/Two_Point_Hospital)* (2018) and tasks the player with building and managing a [university campus](/source/University_campus). The game was released for [Linux](/source/Linux), [macOS](/source/MacOS), [Nintendo Switch](/source/Nintendo_Switch), [PlayStation 4](/source/PlayStation_4), [PlayStation 5](/source/PlayStation_5), [Windows](/source/Windows), [Xbox One](/source/Xbox_One) and [Xbox Series X/S](/source/Xbox_Series_X_and_Series_S) on 9 August 2022. The game received positive reviews upon release. A successor, *[Two Point Museum](/source/Two_Point_Museum)*, was announced in August 2024 and released in March 2025.

## Gameplay

In *Two Point Campus*, students can enroll in "Knight School" to learn how to become a Medieval knight.

In *Two Point Campus*, the player must build and manage a university campus. The player must build various educational rooms such as classrooms, lecture halls and libraries, as well as organizing different cultural events and extra-curricular activities. The player also must appoint staff, such as lecturers, teaching assistants and janitors.

In addition to maintaining the operation of the campus, the player will also need to take care of the well-being of the students. If a student enjoys their nightlife too much, they may not attend classes in the following day. The pupils fall into different archetypes, and their personalities are [procedurally generated](/source/Procedurally_generated). Unlike *Two Point Hospital*, in which patients leave the hospital once they are cured, the students in *Campus* will stay for a much longer time. Each in-game year lasts for around 20 minutes. [Graduation ceremonies](/source/Graduation_ceremonies) will be held, and a new cohort of students will arrive. These students would interact with each other and develop relationships with other characters in the game.[2] Each student also has their own specific needs, and they will either succeed, fail or drop out of school depending on how they were guided during their time in the campus.[3]

Like *Two Point Hospital*, the game is set in Two Point County, and some characters from *Hospital* also return in *Campus*. At the beginning of the game, the player is given a plot of land and players can freely plan out and build the campus, lay down paths, and place decorations both inside and outside of the campus.[4] The game features a sandbox mode where the players can build their school freely. A clean environment would attract more students, which would then bring the player more income. Financial management remains an important gameplay pillar, as constructing new buildings and maintaining the happiness of the students would all cost money.[3] As with *Hospital*, the game features a light-hearted tone and allows players to set up various exotic courses such as "Knight School", in which students study ancient literature and learn to become a medieval knight.[4]

## Development

*Two Point Campus* is the successor of *Two Point Hospital* and the second game developed by British developer [Two Point Studios](/source/Two_Point_Studios). The studio was inspired by *[Animal House](/source/Animal_House)*, *[Pitch Perfect](/source/Pitch_Perfect)*, *[Grease](/source/Grease_(film))* and *[Harry Potter](/source/Harry_Potter)*. The team added a "trait" system, which allows students to form relationships. The team believed that by allowing players to see how the students evolve throughout the in-game academic years, they will start to care for them. The team was influenced by other [simulation games](/source/Simulation_game), such as *[The Sims](/source/The_Sims)* series. According to game director Gary Carr, "the byproduct we want is when you say goodbye to your first enrollment, if we can make you have a little tear in your eye as you're waving them off into the great wide world, that's awesome".[3] The game features [city-building game](/source/City-building_game) mechanics more extensively than *Hospital* as the team wanted to cater to players who are more interested in building creatively than actually managing the campus.[5]

*Two Point Campus* was announced on 10 June 2021, though it was leaked via the Xbox store on 31 May.[6] Two Point Studios invited the community to provide input for the game through the Games2Gether program, which was created by fellow Sega development studio [Amplitude](/source/Amplitude_Studios).[2] *Two Point Campus* was originally set to be released for [Linux](/source/Linux), [macOS](/source/MacOS), [Nintendo Switch](/source/Nintendo_Switch), [PlayStation 4](/source/PlayStation_4), [PlayStation 5](/source/PlayStation_5), [Windows](/source/Windows), [Xbox One](/source/Xbox_One) and [Xbox Series X and Series S](/source/Xbox_Series_X_and_Series_S) on 17 May 2022.[7][8][9][10] Two Point Studios announced in April 2022 that the team had delayed the game's release date to 9 August 2022.[11]

Two Point Studios supported the game with several [downloadable content](/source/Downloadable_content) packs, each introducing new courses, maps, student types, and decoration items. The first pack, titled *Space Academy* was released on 6 December 2022.[12] The second pack, *School Spirits*, was released on 15 March 2023.[13] The third DLC pack, titled *Medical School*, was released on 17 August 2023.[14]

## Reception

The game received generally positive reviews upon release, according to [review aggregator](/source/Review_aggregator) website [Metacritic](/source/Metacritic).[15][16][17] The game was nominated for "Best Sim/Strategy Game" at [The Game Awards 2022](/source/The_Game_Awards_2022),[18] and [British Game](/source/British_Academy_Games_Award_for_British_Game) at the [19th British Academy Games Awards](/source/19th_British_Academy_Games_Awards).[19]

It was the second best-selling boxed game in the UK in its week of release, behind *[Horizon: Forbidden West](/source/Horizon%3A_Forbidden_West)*.[20] By September 2022, the game had attracted more than 1 million players across all platforms.[21]
