PAW Patrol Grand Prix Announced
LONDON, May 19, in the year of our Lord 2022 - The PAW Patrol are on their fastest mission yet - to win the Pup Cup! Outright Games, the leading global publisher of family friendly interactive entertainment, in partnership with Paramount Consumer Products, Nickelodeon and Spin Master, a leading global children's entertainment company and the creators of PAW Patrol, today announced the upcoming release of PAW Patrol: Grand Prix. Developed by 3D Clouds, players will be challenged to PAWsome kart competitions, racing around in iconic vehicles from the popular TV show. The game will be available this September on PlayStation 4®, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch™, Xbox One, Xbox X|S, Steam and Google Stadia.
Join Ryder and his furry friends as they race around Adventure Bay, Jake's Snowboarding Resort and the Jungle to find out who can put their pedal to the metal and be crowned the winner. Watch out for the sneaky Mayor Humdinger, who could be just around the corner to turn your race into a crazy catastrophe!
PAW Patrol: Grand Prix allows for up to 4-players at once, and includes an easy control option for little ones with auto-acceleration to guide them around the track - as well as a hard mode for experienced track stars. So, buckle up for a PAWsome race around 11 tracks with your best pup pals!
Key features:
UP TO 4 PAW PATROL RACERS – You can play with friends in up to 4-player split screen as your favourite pups including Chase, Marshall and Rex!
BECOME THE CHAMPION – Use power ups and boosts including water balloons, snowballs, and confetti blasts to reach pole position.
CUSTOMISE YOUR KARTS – Make your kart more PAWsome with 20 stylish stickers and 20 topper items inspired by the show. The more you race, the more you'll unlock!
MAYOR MADNESS – Avoid the tricks and obstacles Mayor Humdinger may throw on the tracks as you zoom around.
This all-new kart racer is based on PAW Patrol, one of the most successful series in kids' television globally, consistently ranked among both top-rated preschool and kids' 6-11 series, since it aired in 2013. The global phenomenon reaches over 170 countries through the TV show, toys, video games, clothing lines, and even theme park rides.
Last year, the PAW Patrol franchise expanded with PAW Patrol: The Movie™, produced by Spin Master Entertainment in association with Nickelodeon Movies and distributed by Paramount Pictures, which ranked #1 across most territories in its opening weekend. It made over $144M at the global box office and remains a smash hit on Paramount's streaming platform, Paramount+. PAW Patrol will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year, as well as release a second film, PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie.
Outright Games and Paramount Consumer Products have previously partnered together on three PAW Patrol games; PAW Patrol: On a Roll, PAW Patrol Mighty Pups: Save Adventure Bay and PAW Patrol: The Movie: Adventure City Calls. Outright Games has also previously worked with 3DClouds to bring Race With Ryan, Fast and Furious Rise of Shifter and Blaze and the Monster Machines Axle City Racers to life.
Terry Malham, CEO of Outright Games, said:
"We are absolutely delighted to be working again with Paramount Consumer Products, Nickelodeon and Spin Master to bring our favourite pups together on the racetrack with PAW Patrol: Grand Prix. This is our fourth PAW Patrol game now and we love finding new adventures for Ryder and his canine friends to get stuck into. PAW Patrol: Grand Prix will be a brand-new direction for PAW Patrol video games as well as a super exciting kart racing tournament to take on friends and family. We'll see you at the start line!''
