« I’m very excited about this release because « Welcome to My Mind » has been on my mind since the game was released last year, » said Tim Schafer, founder of Double Fine Productions. « I’m hoping that by releasing this song (along with the unreleased artwork and the rest of the soundtrack), I’ll also free it from my mind so I can think about other things. »

Psychonauts 2 brings its eerie landscape to life through the eyes of a 10-year-old dreamer with psychic abilities, allowing fans to experience dark and disturbing dangers with the empathetic naivety of a child. Although fans have been waiting for the sequel to Psychonauts for over 15 years, only a few days have passed for our aspiring psychonaut, Raz. Instead of a full-fledged psychonaut, Hollis Forsythe, the second head of the psychonauts, slaps a « trainee » label on his chest, setting off a new adventure with wacky characters, mental worlds to explore, and sinister behind-the-scenes events to solve.
