Barbie Friendship Project, a new adventure game from Mattel and Outright Games, is slated to become available for all consoles and PC on October 25.

The game will follow Barbie “Malibu” Roberts and Barbie “Brooklyn” Roberts as they set out to save the run-down Malibu Waves Community Center with a makeover. Throughout the game, players will have the chance to explore various areas of the center, make ice cream with Ken, renovate the arcade with Teresa, customize scooters with Nikki and much more.

Players can take on the game’s main adventure solo or invite a real-world friend to join in a series of mini games in a two-player local co-op. The game’s characters are voiced by the cast from the TV series.

Barbie Friendship Project was created with the support of television series head writer Ann Austen, who has produced and developed several Barbie animated series and specials, included Barbie Dreamhouse Adventures and Barbie: A Touch of Magic.

The game will be available for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series XIS and PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store on October 25.

“We are looking forward to bringing more Barbie adventures to a new generation of young players on all modern gaming platforms and PC for the first time,” said Erika Winterholler, head of business development for digital gaming at Mattel. “With Barbie Project Friendship, players can expect to create cherished memories with friends, embodying the spirit of fun, friendship and creativity that Barbie represents.”

“It is an honor to work with Mattel on such a profound and beloved brand,” said Stephanie Malham, managing director of Outright Games. “Barbie is an icon and role model for children across the globe, and we are so excited to bring the adventures of Malibu and Brooklyn to life.”
