Welcome to Escape Academy, the world’s foremost clandestine educator in the art of Escape. Whether you’re a returning student or a new pupil, you’ve come to the right place. Escape Academy 2: Back 2 School evolves the escape room format of the first game into a whole new GENRE: This is the first open world escape room game, and it's available right in the comfort of your own home.

Escape Academy 2: Back 2 School features an all-new campaign boasting handcrafted, best-in-class escape rooms built by our team of veteran puzzle designers. But unlike real-life escape rooms, the puzzles in Escape Academy aren’t bound by those stuffy safety regulations: Spiked ceilings? Check. 100 foot drops? Check. And, most-dreaded of all… Final exams? Double check.

The curriculum here at the Academy is equal parts life-threatening and wacky, because what better way to learn than while confronting one's mortality.

In Escape Academy 2, the campus is one big puzzle room. Between classes, explore a sprawling, secret-filled hub with mysterious passage ways, hidden tunnels, and dangerous traps. Or chill out with your pals and take in all the *vibes* that student life has to offer. 

Whatever the case, the Academy’s your new home away from home.

Escaping with a friend has never been this fun. Escape Academy 2 features both online and split screen couch co-op support. And thanks to the new optional No-Timer Mode, students of all backgrounds can puzzle at their preferred pace.

Originally planned for September, we’ve had some internal puzzling talks and have decided to move Escape Academy 2’s release date to November to give the final push to launch as much polish and the best chance to reach as many players as possible!

But that’s not all…

Escape Academy 2 is headed to Gamescom! We’ll be showcasing the game at the Indie Arena Booth and sharing the excitement across social media as we introduce and re-introduce players to the world of Escape Academy.

If you’re headed to Gamescom be sure to check out the Indie Arena Booth (which you can find on this handy map, we DO love maps)!

Escape Academy 2’s all-new story has something for new and returning players alike! You’ll discover a dark mystery surrounding the school’s founding, leading to shocking new revelations about the very nature of The Academy. Connect with new teachers and familiar faces from the first game with an expanded curriculum offering character driven-storylines and puzzle-stuffed side quests!

We’ve rebuilt the look of Escape Academy for the sequel, featuring new environments, tons of details, and even some snazzy new getups for our professors and pupils. 

Plus, evil genius DJ Doseone is back with a sick round of fresh beats to chill and study to. The all-new OST provides the perfect audio background for puzzling. 

So whatcha waiting for? It’s time to go…Back 2 School!

Escape Academy 2: Back 2 School is coming to Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and for PC in November 2026.
