Carmen Sandiego Heads Out Into The World Very Soon On Many Platforms

Carmen Sandiego

The release dates for Carmen Sandiego are now set down for us so we can head back into the hunt for Carmen Sandiego again

It was announced not too long ago that we would be seeing another Carmen Sandiego title back in the mix of things on the PS5, Xbox Series X, Switch, PC, and various mobile devices via Netflix Games. There was a bit of a mixed reception at the time, but that did not stop Gameloft and HarperCollins Productions from pushing forward and building the game out further for us all to get excited about. It is a return to form with the thief in the world and I, for one, was excited to see how it will be us playing as Carmen Sandiego in the game and not specifically hunting her down again. Excited about that and then excited now to see that we can be doing all of this as soon as January 28th if we want to go mobile or March 4th if we want to stick close to home for it all. Along with that, another release date is in the mix for it all too…

Those release dates for Carmen Sandiego are all for the digital versions of the game, which is also a deluxe version too, but those who have been around the IP for forty years might be looking for a bit more. That is what we will get in April when the physical versions of the game will be released along with a 40th Anniversary edition that will come with a lot of little extras so your Carmen Sandiego collection can be filled out a bit more. That is neat for those out there who are still into the physical media. For everyone excited about all of this, though, we have a new bit of gameplay to look at as we wait for the game to make its first launch out there and then hit the other platforms down the line a bit further. Maybe even onto some of those subscription plans for those who take note of that release date.
