Publisher Secret Mode has announced the release of a free update for the popular co-op horror Escape the Backrooms in honor of the game's fourth anniversary since its first appearance in Early Access. The update is now available on all consoles, including Switch 2.
What's New in Level 421?

- Avoid patrolling Scratchers monsters in dark claustrophobic corridors.
- Noclip into an endless ball pit inhabited by a dangerous shark creature.
- Solve puzzles and find the path to the next zone — Overgrowth.
