The Jackbox Party Pack 2 is a party video game developed and published by Jackbox Games. It is the second installment in The Jackbox Party Pack series, and contains five games: Fibbage 2, Quiplash XL, Bomb Corp, Earwax, and Bidiots.

Following in the footsteps of Quiplash, Party Pack 2 introduces three new options:

  • Audience, which allows for up to 10,000 audience members to play along in games like Fibbage 2[2], Quiplash XL, and Earwax.
  • Family-Friendly Filter, which filters out the most provocative content in Fibbage 2, Quiplash XL, and Earwax.
  • Audience Timers, which extends the timers in Quiplash XL, and causes the answer timer in Fibbage 2 to always run to zero.
