Outright Games have made a name for themselves with a host of kid-related video games. We’ve had stuff from Peppa Pig, the PAW Patrol have rocked up numerous times and even L.O.L Surprise! is getting in on the game. But today it’s all about one of the longer running brands as My Little Pony canters into view, taking players on a bit of A Maretime Adventure.
Having launched in physical fashion way back in 1983, the My Little Pony brand fast became something of mainstream. Toys would be collected, cartoons would be consumed and even a feature length film was made. Now though it’s time for My Little Pony fans to embrace the world like never before, with My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure.
In place and downloadable from the digital stores for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch and PC – with full next-gen optimised versions due as a free upgrade later in the year – My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure will see you wandering the delights of Equestria; home of the Pony.
It’s here where you’ll find a single player adventure full of buzz as you join Sunny Starscout and her Mane Five friends in hope of creating the finest festival Equestria has ever seen.
Minigames will complement the solo story, as My Little Pony fans get the chance to experience the best bits of the brand, make friends with others and enjoy the life that it all brings. Of course, customisation is a huge part of this and with Hitch, Izzy, Zipp and Pipp coming along for the ride, you’ll get to kit your squad out however you see fit. You’ll need to make them look good too, because what’s a festival without colour!
Priced at £34.99, you may think that My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure is asking a lot, but this is standard Outright Games fare and whilst they may aim for the younger audience, every now and then what they create hits. We’re hoping that’s the case with My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure and even though we’re personally not the target audience, we do know some young uns who are. Stay tuned for a review of how this plays on Xbox very soon.
You can thrust yourself into the world of Equestria and join My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure for yourself by heading to the usual digital stores. It’s on the Xbox Store for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, as well as those for PlayStation, Switch and PC.
