The demo introduces players to the eerie “Demon World” where players can familiarize themselves with the game’s “cops and robbers” mechanics to "Bail or Jail” with friends and monsters.
Developed by FREE STYLE Inc., alongside Konami Digital Entertainment, the popular action, multiplayer party game―first released on Nintendo Switch™ as OBAKEIDORO!¬―pits a team of human characters against a lone monster that is hunting them down. The demo will introduce Alisa and Alex, the sibling duo on the human team, and Patches, one of the monster characters coming to the game. The human team will have three minutes to run, hide, and use their lanterns to stun the monster for a short time to avoid being captured. The monster has the ability to glide through walls and other obstacles on the map to ambush its victims.
Upon full release, Bail or Jail will include nine maps, more characters, and different lantern options, to offer different gameplay experiences in each match. The ability to join Quick Matches with friends through Discord® will also be available.
The game features improved graphics, additional sound effects, and increased realism of character animations and cutscenes in comparison to its Nintendo Switch™ counterpart.
The Bail or Jail demo will support Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, French, Brazilian-Portuguese, and Russian. More languages, including Italian, German, Spanish, Korean, and Portuguese, will be available post-launch.
