Moonbug Entertainment has joined forces with Outright Games on the first ever video game for hit preschool brand, CoComelon.
The game – called CoComelon: Play with JJ – will launch on Nintendo Switch on 28 October 2022.
It will invite parents and children to a playdate at JJ’s house, where they can spend time with JJ’s family and his Melonpatch Academy friends, build a collection of virtual stickers, play musical mini-games and discover shapes and numbers.
Players can also explore JJ’s house and garden, as well as interact with objects in the environment. Favourite songs from the CoComelon series – such as Yes Yes Vegetables and Wheels on the Bus – will also be featured.
“We are committed to providing the best relevant entertainment experience to our fans and their families, which means entering the gaming space is the natural next step in our Moonbug journey,” commented René Rechtman, Moonbug Entertainment’s co-founder and ceo. “As audiences evolve and entertainment habits develop, we are also expanding our product portfolio.”
Terry Malham, ceo of Outright Games, said: “We’re thrilled to be working on the first ever CoComelon video game with our new partners Moonbug. CoComelon: Play with JJ brings all the fun and colourful activities that fans love about the show to our brand new video game. It’s sure to provide many happy moments for the whole family to enjoy together. Everyone’s favourite characters are songs are here to sing along with and we can’t wait to share the game with everyone later this year.”
