Alright, let’s dive into this swirling mess of gaming news. So, Outright Games, you know, those folks who seem to get what kids and parents are into, dropped another free update for Bluey: The Videogame. If you haven’t been glued to your Switch recently, now you can prance around as Muffin – who, let’s be honest, has got that whole flamingo queen thing nailed. Oh, and Uncle Stripe’s in on the action too, brandishing a squash racket like it’s nobody’s business.
You can hunt for flamingos and rackets or snag cool extras for that Sticker Book that – surprise! – might just get you some snazzy rewards.
Now, Bluey herself has got this whole other level of fame. She’s on TV snagging Emmys and BAFTAs! Yeah, those awards are no joke. The game? It’s like someone dumped all her boundless energy into pixels, and voila, you’ve got this rollicking adventure. It even voices Dad, Bandit, the legend – voiced by David McCormack – and Mum, Chilli, who Melanie Zanetti brings to life. Bluey’s home, among other places, looks spot-on. Wander around, soak it all in – seriously, don’t rush.
Episodes turned into gameplay? Check. New storyline bits cooked up by Artax Games with BBC Studios and Ludo Studio? Double check. Seriously, these guys went all out. It’s a sandbox free-for-all — jump from one quest to another, chill out, do your thing. I mean, whatever floats your boat, right?
Plus, hey, if you’ve got a few pals around, up to four folks can dive in as Bluey, Bingo, Mum, or Dad. Minigames, anyone? Throw in some Keepy Uppy and Magic Xylophone, and you’re set for hours. Loads of in-game goodies too – costumes, stickers, episodes. Keeps the good vibes going.
Mark the date – November 17, 2023. The game hits shelves and the Nintendo eShop. Gosh, feels like the Switch just keeps on giving. Can’t complain, can we?
