New M-Rated Jackbox Game 'for Adults' is Coming Later This Year
30.04.2024 - 01:13 / gamerant.com / Sarah Fields
Jackbox Games has revealed a brand new M-Rated Jackbox Game made for adults that's launching later in 2024. The new game collection is intended to appeal to grown-ups who want something a little more «provocative,» per Jackbox Games.
Jackbox Party Packs have had party titles that are popular with both casual and diehard gamers alike. Unlike many party games that require players to each own a copy of the game when playing online, Jackbox Games' titles can be played with as little as one copy of the games. For many of the games, players can join in with just a web browser, so all that's needed is a video stream of what's happening on the screen to play along. With the games allowing for anywhere from a handful of people to a hundred, the series has found popularity with everyone from casual gamers to popular streamers.
While many Jackbox Games are technically safe for all ages, many players don't treat them that way. While some of the games are more restrictive on how a gamer can interact, like You Don't Know Jack, titles like Drawful and Fibbage allow players to effectively insert their own answers, which can lead to some hilarious — and crude — moments, depending on who's playing. Now, theJackbox Naughty Pack looks to be adding to these more adult moments, as the franchise takes on Mature-rated gaming for the first time.
The three titles featured in the new Jackbox Naughty Pack haven't been revealed yet, with the developer stating that they will feature «adult-themed experiences that promise to deliver on laughter, wit, and a touch of irreverence.» A new video teaser plays on the concept of it being a highly-demanded «adult» game, but doesn't offer much insight as to what games players will be experiencing. It's possible that the Jackbox Naughty Pack will contain entirely new games, or it may build on existing titles like Quiplash. In any case, players shouldn't have too long to wait, as the pack is slated to release this summer.
There's plenty of family-friendly party video games, including those from major companies like Nintendo with titles like Mario Party. With plenty of titles appropriate for all ages and streaming audiences, it will be interesting to see how far Jackbox Games pushes the envelope with this release. Thankfully, there's plenty of Jackbox Games to enjoy while fans wait for the release of the new party pack, and gamers will likely keep making these experiences «adult» with their own answers and doodles in the meantime.
