MeteoHeroes, co-produced by Mondo TV and the Italian weather forecasting center Meteo Operations Italia (MOPI), has inspired a video game that is set to launch on multiple platforms next year.

Through its subsidiary Mondo TV Producciones Canarias, Mondo TV Iberoamerica has agreed to a contract with digital entertainment company Sony Interactive Entertainment España (SIE España) and game developer Gammera Nest for the development, promotion and physical and digital distribution of the video game.

MeteoHeroes: el videojuego will launch on PlayStation in spring 2022. Launches on PC and Mac platforms will follow later in the same year.

Worldwide publishing will be managed by PlayStation Talents. PlayStation Talents will also carry out communication, promotion and launch activities for the video game. Mondo TV Producciones Canarias will be the owner of the intellectual property rights of the video game, as well as its content and the products and/or works that may be derived from it. The company will also hold the industrial property rights over the video game brands.

Maria Bonaria Fois, CEO of Mondo TV Iberoamérica, said: “This partnership signals a great new direction for MeteoHeroes and one that fits perfectly with its aims and ideas. Working with some of the best names in the business, we plan to develop a video game that reflects the show’s great storytelling and exciting animation as well as its values and message to create a truly engaging and original video game that I’m sure the show’s fast-growing fanbase will love.”

Roberto Yeste, communication director of SIE Spain and head of PlayStation Talents, said: “At SIE Spain and PlayStation Talents we are committed to projects that have a background as important as MeteoHeroes. We are very excited to bring that world to PlayStation fans and we are sure that kids will enjoy and learn about the importance of ecology in a fun and enriching way.”
