The Jackbox Party Packs have always allowed for adult-themed responses, but it was never solicited or directly encouraged by the games themselves. For those who have wanted a more mature experience, Jackbox Games is finally granting you your wish, as it has announced Jackbox Naughty Pack, a new release of three games that promises spicy prompts and dirty fun later this year. We don't know what kinds of games will be included, but Jackbox Games teases "spicy surprises and maybe even some familiar faces." Does that tease a new, mature-themed You Don't Know Jack? Will we get dirtier iterations on some classic Jackbox titles? Or will these be all new games that just so happen to include some favorite characters from past games? Unfortunately, for now, Jackbox Games is being tight-lipped with the contents of Jackbox Naughty Pack. However, the studio did...

Housemarque, the developer of titles such as Returnal and Resogun, has teased some kind of announcement for tomorrow.  In a post on X, the developer simply posted a graphic of what appears to be a fractured reflection of a woman’s eyes with the word “Tomorrow.” pic.twitter.com/F4R6TYFyZ1 — Housemarque (@Housemarque) April 29, 2024 Less than two hours later, Housemarque shared a brief video clip of the same image but in animated form. pic.twitter.com/uAkzYOCjjn — Housemarque (@Housemarque) April 29, 2024 While the kneejerk reaction is to assume this announcement is related to Returnal, be it a sequel or something else, that seems unlikely.
