Team 17 has released a brand new trailer for The Escapists 2, which is coming to Switch, PlayStation 4, PC and Xbox One later this year and shows off the games multiplayer. Check it out below.



You can now plan your escape and then execute that plan, with a friend, something that players have been wanting since the original games release. Drop-in, drop-out multiplayer capability allows you to carefully plan and execute an intricate escape from your initial incarceration with your fellow inmates either online or locally, or simply hop into an existing game already in progress to help pull off the final touches of the escape.


The entire game can be experienced on your own, or you can partner up with others, but however you choose to do it, escaping won't be easy. You'll have to work around the strict prison schedule and avoid the unwanted attention of guards. Craft weapons and tools found (or stolen) from within the prison, but beware of cell shakedowns. Get a job or undertake quests to purchase vital supplies, all while scouting escape routes – you may even uncover some unique escapes that cannot be undertaken alone.
