Inescapable

Publisher Aksys Games and developer Dreamloop Games announced a release date for Inescapable: No Rules, No Rescue.

The new escape game thriller is launching on October 19th across Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.

Inescapable: No Rules, No Escape isn’t a Death Game. Or, more accurately, it isn’t just a Death Game. Here, your relationship with other characters is game-defining,” says Joni Lappalainen, CEO of Dreamloop. “It’s about how six months in the most insane circumstances you can imagine might change you. Player choices and actions matter more in Inescapable: No Rules, No Escape than almost any other game we’ve seen in the genre, and it isn’t just limited to dialogue choices.”

Publisher Aksys Games and developer Dreamloop Games shared a new gameplay trailer for Inescapable: No Rules, No Rescue.

Here’s a rundown on the previously announced game, plus the new gameplay:

Inescapable is a narrative adventure set at a tropical island resort: you’ve been kidnapped and forced to participate in a twisted reality TV show with 10 strangers. At the end of their stay, they’ll each receive $500,000… If they survive.

On the island, there are no rules or laws for the contestants to follow. Their only imperatives are to survive and to entertain the depraved audience of the darkweb TV show on which they find themselves. Inescapable’s story explores human nature and how far people will go for social clout, wealth, and their own desires—and how much further they might be willing to go when they have permission to ignore the rules.

The game experience will shift dramatically depending upon players’ choices, setting players upon unique paths in which characters will reveal different sides of who they are. Each path is a distinct journey with a unique theme and its own game mechanics, not just a distinct ending.

Features:

  • Multiple narrative paths
  • A provocative character-driven story
  • A diverse cast of characters with intriguing personalities and backstories
  • Hours of voice-acted dialogue
  • A full-length original soundtrack with music from Zero Escape’s Shinji Hosoe and Matias Lehtoranta
