About this deal

Episode 32 of season three (called Onesies) is, on the surface, a look at Bingo's raucous imagination gone haywire, as Chili's estranged sister Brandy finally comes to visit after four years. She arrives with two animal onesies, a cheetah for Bingo and a zebra for Bluey. Bluey is envious of Bingo's cheetah costume but it doesn't quite fit and Bingo has taken to her cheetah persona a little too intently. The outfits unleash a wild game of hunter and hunted, but throughout, Brandy seems uncomfortable, on the verge of leaving and seemingly full of unspoken regrets. Get ready for an all-new Bluey adventure as Bluey: The Videogame launches today on consoles and PC. Created by Outright Games, the leading global publisher of family-friendly interactive entertainment, in partnership with BBC Studios, Bluey: The Videogame marks the highly anticipated video game debut of the internationally loved TV show.

The home-grown animated series has enjoyed critical success in Australia and globally, winning a Logie Award for ‘Most Outstanding Children’s Program’ in 2019 and 2022 as well as an International Emmy® Kids Award in the Pre-school category in 2020. Over 5 million Bluey books have been sold in Australia and Bluey The Album debuted on the ARIA album charts at #1 – the first ever children’s album to top the ARIA chart. Bluey has also taken out the Australian Toys Association’s Preschool License of the Year award four years running.

This latest season is no different, with 10 new episodes that have captivated kids and one in particular that is driving countless conversations and arguments among adults online. With traumatic issues, such as pregnancy loss, parents are often worried children will be traumatised if they talk about the issue too much. While the intentions are good, it is a good idea to process issues like pregnancy loss with children in a developmentally appropriate way," she tells BBC Culture. Calhoun believes answering Bluey's questions about Brandy "honestly, but specifically" would have ultimately been more helpful. Ludo Studio is a BAFTA, multi-Emmy® and Logie award-winning Australian studio that creates and produces original scripted drama, animation and digital stories that are authored by incredible local talent, distributed globally and loved by audiences everywhere. ludostudio.com.au Space, Onesies and The Show all exemplify what Bluey does best, reflecting the patchwork of personal history that makes up a family, the interwoven stories that ultimately inform who we are to our loved ones and to ourselves. The series helps give language to what often goes unspoken between us, giving both parents and kids fresh tools to understand the family dynamic. The only question left to ask is, "when is season four coming?" Stephanie Malham, COO of Outright Games said: “We’re delighted to celebrate the launch of Bluey: The Videogame, it’s an honour to be trusted with bringing such an iconic world to life, in a video game for the first time ever. We understand the great responsibility that comes with adapting these beloved characters and our goal throughout has been to create an experience that feels like stepping into an episode of Bluey. Families can sit down and enjoy playing together just like they have gathered to watch the show over the years. As with all our titles, we are dedicated to making Bluey: The Videogame accessible to fans of any age, including young players and their parents, by developing intuitive gameplay that faithfully captures the everyday family joys that are at the core of Bluey”.Remember when licensed games were uniformly terrible? Buying a video game based on a beloved movie or character would, more often than not, be rewarded by the crushing disappointment of a poorly engineered, hastily slapped-together cash-in. Eventually, licensors like Disney got wise to the reputation damage, and gave talented studios the time and freedom to make spinoff games their own way — even Spider-Man and Star Wars games are good now. It’s a truism that nobody sets out to make a bad game, and there’s evidence of some love for the material here from developer Artax Games and publisher Outright Games. The character select screen is a lovely riff on the TV show’s iconic credits sequence. All the original voices are here, along with some of the show’s wonderful music, and it looks as though many of the assets and animation rigs for the characters have been imported directly from the animators at Ludo Studio. At a basic level, the gameplay embraces the show’s whole-family-watches-together premise. It’s playable in four-player co-op, with the players taking the roles of the four members of the Heeler family: Bluey, little sister Bingo, Chilli (Mum), and Bandit (Dad). Kevin Jorge Senior Producer Gaming & Interactive at BBC Studios said: “Bringing Bluey’s adventures to console and PC platforms for the first time is incredibly exciting. Alongside our friends at Outright Games, we hope that kids and families across the world love playing Bluey: The Videogame together as much as they do watching the show.” Season two's episode The Show hints at a miscarriage: when Bluey pretends to be a pregnant Chili by placing a balloon under her shirt and when the balloon accidentally pops, a smiling Chili is suddenly despondent. Bandit reaches out for her hand and fans were left wondering if an earlier pregnancy loss had triggered this reaction. This assumption was later confirmed by show creator Joe Brumm when he told author Isabelle Oderberg that, "The Show indeed does point at Chilli having a miscarriage." Bluey: The Videogame is available with full localised voice over in: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish (EU), Spanish (LATAM), Dutch, Polish, Arabic, Swedish, Danish, Finnish. Localised subtitles and text are available in English, French, Italian, German, Spanish (EU), Spanish (LATAM), Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Arabic, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and Korean.

We wait for new seasons of Bluey like we wait for Christmas in my house. There's a breathless anticipation that reaches a fever pitch the closer we get to another fresh batch of bingeable, seven-minute-long episodes. And with the latest released on Wednesday on Disney+, even I was surprised by just how affected I was by one episode that left me in tears, having to explain to a five- and three-year-old why mummy is sobbing at Bluey. Produced by Ludo Studio for ABC KIDS (Australia), Bluey is co-commissioned by ABC Children's and BBC Studios Kids & Family. This interactive sandbox adventure video game allows players to explore the wonderful world of Bluey for the first time ever, in four player local co-op for the whole family to play together. Bluey: The Videogame is now available to play on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC. Bluey: The Videogame is based on the Emmy® and BAFTA Award-winning global TV show phenomenon Bluey, which follows Bluey, a loveable, inexhaustible, Blue Heeler dog, who lives with her Mum, Dad and her little sister, Bingo. Bluey uses her limitless energy to play games that unfold in unpredictable and hilarious ways, bringing her family and the whole neighbourhood into her world of fun. BBC Studios Kids & Family is an integral part of the BBC Studios content powerhouse – a global company with bold British creativity at its heart. Formed in 2022 with the move of BBC Children’s In-house Production into BBC Studios Productions, combines into one team, the exceptional talent and expertise of the BBC Children’s In-House Production team alongside the global insight, content sourcing, investment, customer and brand experience within BBC Studios, to seamlessly take content from conception, development and production to investment, franchise management and distribution.But if you thought disrespecting fans and the video game medium itself with trashy tie-ins was a thing of the past, I’m afraid I have to disabuse you. There’s one community that still has to put up with this kind of thing on the regular, and it’s kids. It brings me no joy to report that the latest example (and one of the most egregious) of this slash-and-burn game licensing is Bluey: The Videogame — news that will be galling to preschoolers and parents, as well as to the many adult fans (and, presumably, the creators) of one of the best things on TV.
