Activision Launches The Peanuts Movie Snoopy's Grand Adventure Video Game
SANTA MONICA, Calif. – Nov. 3, in the year of our
Lord 2015 – Activision Publishing, Inc. has released
The Peanuts Movie: Snoopy’s Grand Adventure, a new console game,
as a part of its deal with Peanuts Worldwide. The game is
inspired by the classic comic strip from Charles M. Schulz,
which just recently celebrated its 65th anniversary. This
side-scrolling exploration platformer features simple,
pick-up-and-play controls and the classic characters and humor
of Peanuts, delivering a great experience for fans of all ages.
When Charlie Brown and the gang run off to play hide-and-seek,
Snoopy hits the trail to track them down. As players dive into
the wild worlds of Snoopy’s imagination, they’ll traverse a
multitude of different environments, from the deep jungle to the
moon itself, each teeming with surprises and dangers. Snoopy can
reach new places with unique hidden costumes that give the
beagle new abilities based on his many infamous alter egos,
including Joe Cool and the Flying Ace, which unlocks special
flight stages. A second player can partner up as Woodstock to
help Snoopy get past dangerous creatures and obstacles, or find
secret paths and collectibles such as jelly beans and the trusty
Beagle Scouts.
The Peanuts Movie: Snoopy’s Grand Adventure draws from the
distinctive style and playful charm of The Peanuts Movie, coming
to theaters on Nov. 6 from 20th Century Fox and Blue Sky
Studios. The varied worlds of Snoopy’s daydreams are painted in
gorgeously colorful 3D detail, and the film’s vocal cast is
showcased throughout the game.
The Peanuts Movie: Snoopy’s Grand Adventure is out today in
North America on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system
and Xbox One for $49.99 MSRP, Xbox 360 and Nintendo’s Wii U™
system for $39.99 MSRP, and the Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system
