The Escapists 2, the follow up to Mouldy Toof Studios' hit prison-escape game, will release on August 22, 2017.
Enjoy teaming up with your mates? Here are some of our favourite co-op games.
Offering ten "unique-themed prisons" from which to escape – including the frosty Fort Tundra, a desert-bound train, and "a trip to the final frontier" (no, I'm not sure what that means, either) – each prison offers solo or drop-in/drop-out multiplayer options, including online and couch co-op for up to four players. There's also a new combat system, new ways to escape, new stuff to craft, and over 300 customisable options for you to create your perfect nefarious partner-in-crime.
Those who pre-order The Escapists 2 will receive a bonus prison called The Glorious Regime. If you're intrigued by the series but a little hesitant to jump right in then, don't worry, there's a "dedicated tutorial" also promised.
We quite liked the original game, describing it original went on to sell almost two million copies.
