The Sesame Street TV show launched in November of 1969, 57 years ago. The show has navigated many ups and downs since then, but it's still around and teaching important lessons to our young'uns. 15 years ago, Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster became the first co-op game to take place on that fabled street. Now, in today's stressful world, we have a fresh Sesame experience in the form of Sesame Street: Friends & Fun from Outright Games. It supports 2-player local co-op, and it's available on all platforms.
Features: JOIN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: Create your own character and join Elmo, Tango, Abby and their friends on Sesame Street. EXPLORE THE STREET: Start at your apartment, stop by Big Bird’s cozy nest, play at the Count’s Mansion, and unlock more places. DISCOVER AND GROW: Use rewards to decorate your home, unlock new mini-games and access exciting new areas. BRING EVERYONE TOGETHER: Help the community by going on cooking, photography, and even farming quests solo or in co-op. TRAVEL WITH TANGO: Take care of Tango just like she’ll take care of you as she helps you get around. THE STAGE IS YOURS: Choose from the colorful backdrops, lights, and other cool special effects for the main stage.Friends & Fun seems to be based on the Elmo-heavy, no-rough-edges, modern era of Sesame Street, for better or worse. Still, the chance to create a Muppet character and explore the iconic street in 3D remains enticing. And in between games, fans can enjoy the 57th season of Sesame Street when it debuts on Netflix on Monday, November 23.
Sesame Street: Friends & Fun costs $29.99 on Xbox Series, PlayStation, Switch, and Steam. In celebration of the show's anniversary, the game is on sale on Switch and Steam for 35 percent off through November 19, so don't miss it!
