Experience Jumanji in JUMANJI: THE VIDEO GAME
Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle surprised me. It was a lot better than I expected, and it updated things in a smart manner. After all, having a sentient board game transform itself into a sentient video game really isn’t a giant leap all things considered. Now, I will never understand how that ended up at the school, but it was still a cool way to update things. Well, now we will be able to jump into the world of Jumanji via video game. We got Jumanji as a board game back in the day, so it only makes sense that we get the video game version.
Outright Games recently dropped the announcement trailer for Jumanji: The Video Game the other day, and I’ll admit that the graphics don’t impress me. However, it will be fun to pick Ruby Roundhouse and explore the world. What I’m most excited about is that Jumanji will feature online and split-screen modes so you can play with friends.
“Unite in adventure and laughter in the action-packed game of Jumanji, as you try to survive the ultimate challenge for those seeking to leave their world behind!
Only you and three teammates can recover the JEWELS and save Jumanji. So get online, gather friends for split-screen play, or go alone with AI companions. There’s an army of evil marauders to take on, deadly beasts and traps to dodge, and cool customizations to unlock. And with heroes Dr. Bravestone, Ruby, Mouse, and Prof. Oberon as your avatars, you know you’ve got the unique abilities – and hilarious failings – to save the day!”
Jumanji: The Video Game is being developed for Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, and Xbox One by Bandai Namco, Funsolve, and Outright Games. It is set to release on November 15 for all platforms.
