The Escapists 2 Revealed

With 1.8 million copies being shifted, The Escapists has been something of a hit for Team17. The game sees you playing as a group of pixelated prisoners with only one goal: to escape from prison. The new title will feature split screen and online multiplayer, both in co-op and versus flavour, this being the most requested feature by fans.

“I’m thrilled to be working with my friends at Team17 again to bring this new chapter of The Escapists to life,” said Chris Davis, founder, Mouldy Toof Studios. “The Escapists 2 takes everything the fans loved from the first game and adds in so many new additions and features on top. I can’t wait to see what the fans think!”

“One of my most anticipated features in The Escapists 2 is co-op for up to four players. Multiplayer was something we saw our incredible The Escapists community cry out for in the original game and something I'm so excited to see fully realised in the sequel, both local and online,” said Debbie Bestwick MBE, CEO, Team17. “As a player with quite a few prison escapes under my own belt I can't wait to work together with my friends on escapes.”
