Pinkle is celebrating its third anniversary with a 90% discount on its debut title, the asymmetric escape party game Pritto Prisoner, dropping the price to 124 yen (tax included) across Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and PC via Steam. The game, created by former Dragon Quest developer Ryutaro Ichimura and featuring character art by Kanahei, pits a four-player animal team against two robot guards. The animal team uses bodily functions like poop and pee cannons to escape, while the robot team employs stun guns and lassos to capture them. A major Ver.2.0 update rolled out on May 28, adding three new stages, three new animal characters, one new robot, special items, and random sudden events. Alongside the sale, Pinkle is running a giveaway on its official X account where three winners can receive a Nintendo Switch 2, with entries open until June 8 at 23:59 JST.
Pinkle launched Pritto Prisoner in December 2025 as its first title, helmed by Ryutaro Ichimura, a veteran of Square Enix's Dragon Quest series. The game's premise-animals escaping a prison by using poop and pee-drew attention at Tokyo Game Show 2025 for its vulgar but cute aesthetic, with character designs by popular illustrator Kanahei. The Ver.2.0 update, released on May 28, adds three new stages, three new animal characters, one new robot, special items, and randomly occurring sudden events, as detailed in an update trailer. The 90% sale runs for a limited period, cutting the regular 1,240 yen price to 124 yen. The Switch 2 giveaway on X includes two tiers: a standard follow-and-repost entry for one winner, and a video-submission plan for two winners who post gameplay footage on YouTube, Twitch, or X. Entries close June 8 at 23:59 JST.
