Break out of a military prison with a gold tank in The Escapists: The Escape Team DLC
If you've ever been to military boot camp, then playing The Escapists—a game about prison life—will give you mild flashbacks. The routines. The walls. The uniforms. The guards. Well, The Escapists: The Escape Team DLC, which has maybe one too many The's in its name, combines the worst of both worlds. You and three other inmates will plot a jailbreak from a military prison.
Judging by the new tile set, it's a military prison in Afghanistan, and the yard prominently features a gold-plated tank. That oughta make this a jailbreak for the history books. The DLC comes with six new achievements/trophies to unlock as you trade porn mags for razor blades and bide your time among fatigue-wearing military police.
I went to Navy boot camp in Great Lakes, Illinois, back in the late '90s. Two days in, one recruit made a break for it and jumped the fence. Little did she know that boot camp was simply a fenced off area inside of a larger Navy base compound. That was good for a laugh.
The Escape Team DLC does hard time on PC ($3.99), PlayStation 4 ($4.49), and Xbox One ($4.49) starting June 30.
