Life simulation game Hello Kitty Island Adventure announced for Apple Arcade
Due out on July 28.
Sunblink has announced Hello Kitty Island Adventure, a narrative-driven life simulation game based on Sanrio’s Hello Kitty and friends. It will launch via Apple Arcade on July 28.
“At the heart of everything we do at Sanrio are our core values of friendship, kindness, and inclusivity,” said Sanrio senior vice president of marketing, brand management, and creative Jill Koch in a press release. “In our newest game featuring Hello Kitty and friends, giving gifts, spreading kindness, and creating smiles is front-and-center. As in life, acts of kindness can engender incredible warmth and make such a positive impact on people’s lives. And since Sunblink’s mission is to create kind, collaborative, and imaginative games, we knew they were the right development partner.”
Sunblink chief producer officer Chelsea Howe added, “Hello Kitty’s charming world and focus on friendship embodies our team’s philosophy toward making games, so partnering with Sanrio is a tremendous honor and privilege. We can’t wait for players to fall in love—for the first time, or all over again—with iconic Sanrio characters in a rich open world they can make their own.”
