Save your next party!

Whether you’re hanging out with friends, having a secluded happy hour, trying to make the holidays less awkward, or looking for your next game to stream, The Jackbox Party Pack 9 is here to spice things up.

Let’s keep it simple. You don’t need extra controllers for extra players – everyone uses their phone or tablet to play! Games support up to 10 players and 10,000 spectators who join in the fun to influence the outcome of the game.

It’s true that The Jackbox Party Pack 9 is so much fun that we almost decided to keep it to ourselves. Then the Video Game Illuminati came down and told us that our selfishness would be punished with ten years of cursed feasting if we didn’t see the error of our ways. *cries*

In a totally selfless effort to make sure your holiday hangouts are engaging and fun, we’ve decided that The Jackbox Party Pack 9 is coming to major digital platforms on Thursday, October 20! We are in the ninth cloud and have successfully completed what is arguably our best package yet.

“Why did you make us wait so long to share a date?”

It’s true that we usually release our new title around this time of year! In the run-up to launch, we’ll need to submit our game to all the platforms we’re available on. Until we’ve gone through the submission process, we won’t be able to select a release date. Because we have a fast annual release cycle, the time between submission and release is super fast! As soon as we can, we’ll choose a date and share it with the world!

“What can I expect from The Jackbox Party Pack 9?”

Settings and features we’ve added in recent packs are still available in The Jackbox Party Pack 9. Earlier this summer, we also announced the ability to kick players out of the lobby and in-game. This helps to keep live streams or games played at public events as safe as possible. This Party Pack also allows you to connect to games via QR codes that appear on the screen in the lobby before starting 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 gambling festivity Nonsensory and the lascivious reality TV game Roomerang.

“How can I make sure I don’t miss the release date?”

By pre-ordering The Jackbox Party Pack 9 Steam Codes from our official store or the Steam store, you can have the game ready to use in your Steam library as soon as it’s released. The game will be downloaded on release day and then your party can begin! And if you pre-order now, you’ll get 10% off your purchase. Howdy!

The Jackbox Party Pack 9 includes:

  1. Fibbage 4 (2-8 players) – The hilarious bluff party game returns with an all-new Final Fibbage, video questions, fan-submitted questions and the Fibbage Enough About You mode! It’s a game that’s so loved that we decided to put a 4 on it.
  2. Quixort (1-10 players) – In this trivia sorting factory, you have to work with your team to sort falling answers in the right order before they fall to the floor! Or play single player mode and see how many blocks you can sort before reaching the top. It’s as easy as A, C, B!
  3. Junktopia (3-8 players) – A strange wizard has turned you into a frog! Create hilarious backstories for weird objects and then have them rated. The player with the most valuable items becomes human again!
  4. non-sensory (3-8 players) – Professor Nanners is here to test your NSP (non-sensory perception) in this drawing, writing and guessing game! How close can you get to guessing where another player’s prompt is on the most insane scale?
  5. roomerang (4-9 players) – Channel your inner reality TV star in an effort to come out on top! Respond to prompts, bring in the competition and role play to avoid being voted out. Never fear though, even if you’re gone, your Roomerang-ed will land right back in the drama!

How to play remotely?

In The Jackbox Party Pack 9, players use any internet-enabled device (such as a smartphone or tablet) to join the game and play. If you’re playing with external players, you can use a video conferencing tool like Zoom, Steam Broadcast, Google Hangouts, Discord, and more to connect with others! Just share your screen while on a call and be sure to look for clues to share audio. Visit our Remote Play page for more tips and tutorials.

The Jackbox Party Pack 9 is only in English at launch, but a patch with French, Italian, German and Spanish localization is coming soon. This game does not support online matchmaking but can still be played remotely using live streaming services or video conferencing tools.

The Jackbox Party Pack 9 will be available on October 20, 2022 for Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam).
