The Escapists 2 Coming To Switch On January 11 With Local Co-Op
The Escapists 2, Team 17's prison break simulator, is coming to the Switch on January 11.
The game is a top-down sprite-based playground for players to figure their way out of prison with disguises, ropes, and hopefully at least one Racquelle Welch poster. The Switch version also allows local co-op using the system's two joycons.
You can check out the Switch announcement trailer below to get a feel for the game and check out our review of the PlayStation 4 version here. The Escapists 2 was originally released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC in August.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
