Prison break game The Escapists will release on Xbox One on February 13, Team 17 has announced.

The Xbox One launch marks the first time the game will be available to purchase on console, having previously been available on Steam Early Access.

The Escapists sees players plotting their escape from six unique prisons, crafting items to help them start prison riots or dig their way out unnoticed.

“The Escapists is a hilarious and truly captivating game that I personally backed on Kickstarter and have followed from the start,” said Team 17 managing director Debbie Bestwick.

“Since forming a partnership with Chris, the creator, back in February 2014, the game has gone on to win awards and has received fantastic critical acclaim through its current Early Access release. The work gone in from Mouldy Toof and Team17 on co-developing The Escapists is a great example of how our Indie Partnership Publishing Program works.”

A price for the Xbox One release has yet to be announced.
