With Gamescom 2017 just around the corner, companies are beginning to confirm their plans for the big expo. That includes Team17, who announced its lineup of games this week.

Attendees will be able to go hands-on with a number of titles. These include Genesis: Alpha One, Sword Legacy: Omen, Yoku’s Island Express, and The Escapists 2. The latter two are in development for Switch.

Below are overviews of both Yoku’s Island Express and and The Escapists 2:

Yoku’s Island Express
A unique and quirky pinball platform adventure with handcrafted visuals. Flip and bump our pint-sized protagonist around the stunning hand-painted island on your quest to rebuild the post-office, discover the mystery of the Fruit Altar, and wake an old god from its deep slumber. Yoku’s Island Express is coming to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC in 2018.
The Escapists 2
The sequel to the multi-million selling, award-winning sandbox prison-escape game. The Escapists 2 features multiplayer, a first for the series, as well as new ways to escape, new items to craft, a completely revamped combat system, new customisation options and more! The Escapists 2 will launch on the 22nd August for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC with a Nintendo Switch version to follow.

Gamescom 2017 will take place between August 22 and August 26.
