Without any prior announcement, Escape the Backrooms has shown up on Nintendo Switch 2. Right now the game is live in various regions, including North America and Europe
Escape the Backrooms originally debuted at the end of last year and fans were very pleased with the experience. The co-op horror exploration game, which supports up to four players, involves exploring over 30 backrooms “while avoiding entities and other dangers.”
Here’s the official description:
Explore the seemingly infinite expanse of eerily familiar levels in backrooms based on the popular creepypasta lore. Each level features different ways to escape with dangers along the way
Realistic graphics, minimal user interfaces, and dreary ambience combine for an atmospheric horror experience that’s terrified millions of players on Steam
Explore the backrooms with a team of up to 4 players. Good luck: teammates may no-clip into other areas of the map and every member of your team must reach the exit alive to escape. No wanderer left behind
Traverse 30+ unique levels based on backrooms lore. Don’t wander far from your team, as you can easily get lost in the confusing expanse of the backrooms
Check every corner for the many hostile entities lurking inside the backrooms. Each has their own mechanics. Learn quickly if you want to survive the horror
Communicate with your teammates with proximity voice chat. Entities can also hear you, so stay quiet whenever you’re near danger
We have a trailer offering a close look at the game below
