One Escape will make its break this week on the various consoles

A duck, a pig and a gorilla walk into a bank. To rob the place. It goes wrong. Next up: a prison break?

One Escape, a puzzle/platformer about three felons who want to escape jail, arrives on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X this week, publisher Ratalaika Games announced today.

The setup involves a duck, a pig and a gorilla, so you might suppose cute things would happen from there. But these are no ordinary animals, as they sport six-pack abs and glowering countenances, to say nothing of their criminal ambitions.

So anyway, they're in jail and your job is to break them out of the joint. You'll hide from guards, find key cards to pass through locked doors, and avoid "pitfalls" as you navigate 60 levels that lie between you and the sweet, sweet taste of freedom you don't deserve.

That's mostly all there is to know, except that the characters have unique abilities no doubt extremely important as you solve puzzles along the way. And the MSRP is 4.99 $ / € on every platform, and the release date is March 26 in both North America and Europe. You can download it later this week, in other words, and you won't even have to rob a bank to pay for it!
