The Jackbox Party Pack 9 release date set for October

Today, Jackbox Games announced a final release date for The Jackbox Party Pack 9. We have confirmation that it will launch on October 20, 2022.

Speaking about the decision to wait so long for a release date, Jackbox Games explained: “It’s true that we usually release our new title around this time of year! In the time leading up to launch, we have to submit our game to all of the many platforms we’re available on. Until we pass the submission process, we’re unable to select a release date. Because we have a speedy annual release cycle, the time between submission and release is super quick! As soon as we can, we pick a date and share it with the world!”

Other than sharing the release date for The Jackbox Party Pack 9, Jackbox Games also outlined what fans can expect from the final package:

Settings and features we’ve added in recent packs will still be available in The Jackbox Party Pack 9. Earlier this summer, we also announced that you’ll be able to kick players from the lobby and during the game as well. This helps keep livestreams or games being played at public events as safe as possible. This Party Pack will also allow you to connect to games via QR codes that appear on the screen in the lobby before you start a round.

There are five games in The Jackbox Party Pack 9: the trivia bluff-off Fibbage 4, the team sorting test Quixort, the magical joke auction Junktopia, the silly guessfest Nonsensory and the salacious reality TV game Roomerang.

The Jackbox Party Pack 9 will be available digitally on the Switch eShop.
