Team17 and Mouldy Toof Studios have announced that The Escapists 2 will be released for Nintendo Switch on 11th January 2018.
The game sees you breaking out from ten unique prisons, exploring multiple floors, roofs, vents and underground tunnels whilst you live by the prison rules. You'll be doing a variety of prison jobs and following its routines; all whilst secretly working on your huge escape.
It features a two-player split screen mode, allowing each player to grab a Joy-Con and work together (or against if you prefer), and a drop-in, drop-out online multiplayer experience that will support up to four players.
The Escapists 2 will be £19.99 / $19.99 / €19,99 when it launches on the eShop on 11th January but, if the excitement of prison escapes is just too much, you'll be able to pre-order the game early on 4th January. Are you looking forward to this one? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

SEEM okay.
It's about time! The first is a very good sandbox, and with the second having multiplayer, this'll be great!
I'm down for this for some local co op action. Man I'm sure glad I have a 200gb micro sd card up in there. I'm buying a ridiculous amount of eshop games lately and in the near future lol.
I'll wait for reviews at this price. However I'm curious.
Looks interesting
Finally! I've been looking forward to this ever since the Nindies trailer.
Yay! Been looking forward to it since it was announced!
Woop! Can't wait for some portable escapism.
I have it on Steam and it's an excellent game I'm playing with my daughter in local co-op.
Day one for me !
I keep thinking of Zero Punctuation when I see The Escapist and keep getting disappointed.
No chance, don't see why we're getting ripped off for paying GBP - not supporting this BS.
Very excited for a review on this. The game looks amazing, however I remember some mixed feelings with the last one. I hope it's good as I love the premise.
Can't wait. A hope a retail version isn't too far off.
Need this, Yooka-Laylee, and Worms W.M.D but instead I only find retail versions of Overcooked and Yoku's Island Express.
Yes!
So far for January:
Lost Sphear
Shu
The Escapist 2
MH World PS4
been wondering been waiting - reallllly excited for this
Is there going to be a physical? There's one for the other systems but since it says Nintendo Eshop in the video it worries me...
Wait, it's the same cost in dollars, euros and pound? Am I the only one who finds that odd?
