New Map in Development: 20x Larger World, More Freedom, and Tons of Escape Routes!
Hello Inmates!
We have some huge news regarding the future of The Yard: Escape From Prison! Based on your feedback and our goal to deliver the ultimate prison escape experience, we are excited to announce that we are currently hard at work on a brand-new, massive map!
What can you expect from the new map?
20x Larger Map Area: The original areas were just the beginning. The new map expands the prison complex to an incredible scale!
Unmatched Freedom: Explore massive cell blocks, industrial workshops, warehouses, medical wards, garages, outdoor yards, and even guarded harbor docks!
Multiple Escape Routes & Plans: We are designing a wide variety of new ways to outsmart the guards. Every corner of the prison holds secrets, tools, and unique opportunities.
Play Solo or Co-op: Whether you prefer planning a silent escape on your own or pulling off a master strategy together with friends, the new map gives you endless ways to experiment, discover, and successfully break free.

When is it coming?
The new map will officially launch alongside the Full Release version of the game this November!
