Press release:
13th December 2017, UK – Award-winning international games label Team17 has today launched a free content update for its sandbox prison-escape game The Escapists 2 with the arrival of the Santa’s Shakedown prison on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.

Celebrate the festive season with this snowy free new prison that has it all: state of the art equipment, high tech security measures … and an overtly theatrical warden who has repurposed the sports hall as a theatre and is more concerned with putting on an extravagant pantomime than the wellbeing of his inmates. Look past the tacky decorations and an opportunity to escape may just present itself!

Santa’s Shakedown is now available as a free The Escapists 2 game update for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. Please note: Santa’s Shakedown requires The Escapists 2 to play, which is available to purchase for Xbox One via the Xbox Games Store, PlayStation 4 via the PlayStation Store and for PC, Mac and Linux via Steam.

To keep up to date with all the information on The Escapists 2 please like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and join us on Discord.

The Escapists 2 features:
– 10 unique themed prisons to escape from including 3 transit prisons across land, air and sea
– A dedicated tutorial, Precinct 17, for new players to learn the basics of prison life
– Play each prison solo or multiplayer with both local and online co-op and versus modes for up to four players
– Drop-in, drop-out online multiplayer experience. 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!
– A brand-new combat system to make every prison brawl even more bruising
– Create your con with over 300 customisations to create your perfect prisoner
– New ways to escape
– New items to craft – build yourself a homemade taser to knock out guards plus many more!
