《Escape From Playtime》登陆 Steam 抢先体验，支持 1-8 人合作生存恐怖

This week, developer Mob Entertainment launched their latest cooperative survival horror title ‘Escape From Playtime’ onto PC via Steam’s Early Access programme.

This 1-8 player canonical co-op extraction game expands the Poppy Playtime universe in unexpected ways. Set after the infamous Hour of Joy but before the events of Poppy Playtime: Chapter 1, Escape From Playtime takes players back to the factory during a previously unexplored period in the franchise’s history.

For the first time, players can experience the horrors of the unforgiving Playtime Co. factory from the perspective of the Smiling Critters, the cute-yet-disturbing toy line first introduced in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 3. Whether braving the decrepit halls alone or teaming up with friends, players must scavenge resources, evade deadly enemies, and complete increasingly dangerous assignments from a mysterious Voice promising freedom and a new home.

But who is the Voice, and can it be trusted?

In Escape From Playtime, each run sends teams into a dynamically changing section of the facility to find and transport resources for a mysterious sanctuary being promised for toys who prove their loyalty and usefulness. Simple enough, except the factory is filled with rejected Playtime Co. creations stalking the halls. Players must search quickly, choose when to split up or stick together, and know when to retreat.

Along the way, players can solve puzzles, uncover clues, scavenge tools, use hiding spots and alternate routes, and turn the factory layout to their advantage. Proximity voice chat adds another risk: communication is essential, but an irresponsible whisper can bring the mission to a brutal end.

“With Escape From Playtime, we wanted to explore a lesser-known chapter of Playtime Co.’s history and give players a completely new perspective on this world,” said Brandon James, Game Director, Mob Entertainment.

“For longtime fans, there are plenty of familiar faces and lore connections to discover, but we’ve also deliberately made this an experience that newcomers can jump into and enjoy without knowing anything about Poppy Playtime. It’s a new way into the story, no matter where you’re starting from.”

Key Features:

• Critter Co-Op: Play solo or team up with up to 7 friends in a fight for survival inside Playtime Co. More Critters means more ground covered and more chances for something to go horribly wrong, all enabled with proximity voice chat. 
• The Voice: A mysterious Voice sends players into the facility to collect scattered parts and resources. Gather what you need, bring it back safely, and try not to ask too loudly who or what you are really working for.
• Scavenge to Survive: Use whatever the factory gives you to stay alive. Search for tools, uncover clues, find hiding spots, create distractions, and use alternate routes to outmaneuver the rejected Playtime Co. creations stalking the halls.
• Mini Mode: Crawl, jump, and climb through every nook and cranny of the Playtime Co. factory as a Smiling Critter and experience some of the most iconic Poppy Playtime locations through a new (smaller) set of eyes.
• Familiar and New: It’s Playtime Co. as you know it, with a twist. The mysterious Voice seems to be altering the factory’s layout, creating procedurally generated environments that change with each run.
• Playtime Web Portal: Track your progress and examine your hard-earned rewards through the Perm-A-Lounge computer to uncover further terrifying company secrets.
