Description

Pincool, known for their inventive approach to party games, has officially revealed Pritto Prisoner for both the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and the current Nintendo Switch systems.

Scheduled to arrive this winter, Pritto Prisoner promises a unique blend of irreverent humor and competitive chaos tailored for fans of party and multiplayer games alike. Set on a high-security island prison, Pritto Prisoner introduces fast-paced, asymmetrical multiplayer gameplay, pitting four animal inmates against two robotic prison guards in wacky 4v2 matches.

The objective is clear: outsmart the mechanical wardens and orchestrate a breakout, or work as the guards to ensure not one critter escapes. At the heart of Pritto Prisoner’s gameplay is its unconventional use of powerups.

In a humorous twist, players must employ their own unique tactics – including using bodily functions – to stun guards and create new escape routes.

The game transforms bathroom humor into a crucial gameplay mechanic; for example, players can activate pee-powered cannons or unleash poop-fueled turbo boosts to navigate the sprawling prison.

This offbeat design promises moments both surprising and side-splitting for players and spectators alike. According to Pincool’s official announcement, the controls are intentionally accessible, allowing new and veteran players to jump right in.

Whether outmaneuvering robotic pursuers or collaborating with fellow inmates, teamwork and split-second decisions are key to success.

The developer emphasized that Pritto Prisoner’s intuitive hide and seek mechanics ensure the game is fun across all skill levels. Each character in Pritto Prisoner is bursting with personality, thanks in part to celebrated illustrator and manga artist Kanahei, whose charming and whimsical art style brings the animal inmates and bumbling robots vividly to life.

Players can select from a diverse cast, including a cunning cat, a mischievous zebra, a crafty dog, and even a penguin with a culinary background, each with their own traits and absurd capabilities. Notable features include: • Tag-Based Asymmetrical Multiplayer: Teams of four animal inmates must work together to evade and outwit the two robot prison guards in hectic, ever-shifting matches. • Pick Up & Play: Intuitive controls and straightforward objectives ensure anyone can dive in, making it an ideal addition to any multiplayer session on Nintendo Switch or Switch 2. • Distinctive Character Roster: Characters are individually crafted with Kanahei’s signature charm and humor, enhancing both visual appeal and gameplay diversity. • Absurd Powers and Gimmicks: The inventive mix of gross-out humor and high-tech gadgets keeps the action unpredictable and hilariously entertaining from start to finish. Pritto Prisoner is set for release this winter on the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, arriving digitally via the Nintendo eShop.

As anticipation builds for both the game and the debut of Nintendo’s next-generation platform, Pincool’s latest title is poised to deliver a fresh, irreverent multiplayer experience for the Nintendo community.
