Jackbox Party Pack 1 and 2 coming to Switch

Earlier in the year, Jackbox Games launched The Jackbox Party Pack 3 for the Nintendo Switch, but you might have noticed that the first two packs were absent. But fear not! They’re on the way.

Jackbox Games announced via Twitter that The Jackbox Party Pack and The Jackbox Party Pack 2 are both coming to the Switch… at some point. We don’t really know more than that, all we know is that they’re coming.

I’ve actually played both of these packs quite extensively on other platforms, and all of the included games are fantastic. Plus, if The Jackbox Party Pack 3 is anything to go by, they should be very reasonably priced. You can see Jackbox’s description for each of the games included in each pack below.
