Summary
- Get ready for a mature-rated Jackbox game releasing on September 12 with three minigames for adults only.
- Fans can play social deduction game Fakin' It All Night Long, drawing game Dirty Drawful, and debate game Let Me Finish.
- Easy to drop into and play with friends, the Jackbox Naughty Pack is sure to be a hit with existing Jackbox Party Pack fans.
The first M-Rated Jackbox game, Jackbox Naughty Pack, is set to release on September 12. The Jackbox Party Pack game will introduce players to three minigames that are intended for mature audiences.
A Mature-rated version of a Jackbox Party game makes plenty of sense, considering many players' answers can potentially be inappropriate for general audiences. The entry will be a particularly refreshing experience for the video game industry, which typically sees party games follow a family-friendly theme.
The Jackbox Megapicker Explained
The Best War Games speaks with Jackbox Games about the ins and outs of its one-stop shop for Jackbox Party Packs, the Jackbox Megapicker.
Jackbox previously revealed its upcoming M-Rated Jackbox game back in April, and fans will be excited to know that they no longer have long to wait for it. The title will launch on September 12 for $21.69 for PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, PC, and both Amazon Fire TV and Apple TV. The title will feature the games Fakin’ It All Night Long, Dirty Drawful, and Let Me Finish. Fans who already own Jackbox Games titles on PC will be pleased to know that the new entry will be compatible with the Jackbox Megapicker.
Jackbox Naughty Pack's Games
Of the three titles in this particular Jackbox game, two are extensions of existing games that series fans will recognize, while the third is a completely new release. All three games can be played by 3-8 players.
- Fakin' It All Night Long is a social deduction game that selects one secret "faker" per round who must lie in response to the questions asked, while those kept in the dark have to try and guess who the faker is. Fakin' It All Night Long will also include remote play mode for the first time, so players can join in from other locations.
- Dirty Drawful is a drawing and guessing game that sends a prompt to each player and tasks them with drawing a picture based off of it. The other Drawful players must then guess what the prompt was that the player's drawing is trying to depict.
- Let Me Finish is a brand-new debate game. The premise is that the title will offer a question like “Where is the mailbox’s butt?” Or “How does this avocado get aroused?” And it's up to players to decide what the answer is to them and then argue their position with the other players.
Jackbox Party Packs have a reputation for being easy to drop into, and this one will be no different in that regard. Players will be able to scan a QR code to quickly join in on the game via their phones. Fans who are eager to try out the title as soon as it launches can wishlist it now on Steam.
