Two major expansions are on the way, both delivered through the Escape Academy 2 Season Pass. According to the official launch announcement, the Season Pass includes "two upcoming major expansions," and each one will bring an all-new narrative set in the Escape Academy universe along with brand new escape rooms, extra credit side quests and more. Those two DLC adventures were also described ahead of release in the launch-date announcement as part of the post-launch plan for the game.

So the short answer: two story expansions covered by a Season Pass, plus a cosmetic pack, soundtrack and artbook in the Deluxe bundle. The cosmetic pack, soundtrack and artbook ship as part of the Deluxe Edition at launch; only the two expansions are still without dates.

What is the Escape Academy 2 Season Pass?

The Season Pass is the add-on that bundles the game's two post-launch story expansions. Officially it is listed as including two upcoming major expansions, each with a new narrative, new escape rooms and extra credit side quests — the same pair of adventures the launch-date announcement referred to as two upcoming DLC adventures in development.

Things the announcements do not settle: the individual titles of the two expansions, how many rooms each will contain, and whether the Season Pass will be sold separately from the Deluxe Edition. Those details are not officially documented yet, and no price for the standalone pass appears in the announcement text.

How many expansions are included?

Two. Both announcements describe the same pair of expansions, and the earlier post calls them "TWO upcoming DLC adventures that we are hard at work on right now."

Beyond the count, the specifics are still open. Neither post names the expansions, states a release window, or says whether they will be sold individually later. If you are holding off on buying, that is the piece of information to wait for.

What is in the Escape Academy 2 Deluxe Edition?

The Deluxe Edition is the all-in bundle, and the official announcement lists five things inside it:

  • Escape Academy 2: Base Game
  • Escape Academy 2 Season Pass
  • Mask-uerade Cosmetic DLC pack
  • Official Soundtrack
  • Digital Artbook

One wrinkle worth knowing: according to the Steam store listing, the Deluxe Edition is grouped as a three-item bundle: the base game, the Season Pass and a Supporter Pack. The storefront's breakdown and the announcement's wording do not match item for item, and there is no official explanation of the difference.

Which bundles include Escape Academy 2?

Several. The launch announcement names three crossover bundles — an Escape Academy 2 x Escape Simulator 2 Bundle, an Escape Academy 2 x TOEM 2 Bundle, and an Escape Academy 2 x We Were Here Tomorrow bundle — while the store listing shows a slightly different set and prices on top of the base game.

Edition or bundleWhat is includedPrice shown on the store listing (US)
Escape Academy 2: Back 2 SchoolBase game$19.99, discounted 15% to $16.99 as an introductory offer ending November 19
Escape Academy 2 Deluxe EditionBase game, Season Pass, Supporter Pack (per the store bundle breakdown)$40.97, discounted 21% to $32.27
The Escape Sequels BundleEscape Academy 2: Back 2 School and Escape Simulator 2$39.98, discounted 30% to $27.88
Escape Academy 2 x CRACK BundleEscape Academy 2: Back 2 School and CRACK$27.98, discounted 20% to $22.48

Treat the crossover bundle lineup with a little caution: the announcement and the store listing do not name exactly the same partners, and the bundle names and discounts can change between sales.

Are the expansion release dates confirmed?

No. Both expansions are described only as "upcoming," and no date, season or window has been published for either one. The Deluxe Edition's cosmetic pack, soundtrack and artbook, by contrast, are part of a bundle that is out now.

What is officially confirmed is that the two expansions exist, that both are narrative-driven with new rooms and extra credit quests, and that the Season Pass covers them. What is not confirmed is the order they arrive in, their names, their length, or whether they will add achievements. The announcements do not list any of that yet, so the safest move is to keep an eye on Coin Crew Games' and iam8bit Presents' official channels for the next update on the two expansions.
