It was but a few days ago that Mattel and Outright Games – in their new long-lasting partnership – announced a brand-new title in the Barbie universe; Barbie Project Friendship. Now, it’s the turn of another mega kids’ toy property as the gothic dolls of Monster High are converted into video game characters. Monster High: Skulltimate Secrets has been officially announced – and there’s a release date to get excited about too!
Open the Doors
Coming soon to Xbox, PlayStation, Switch and PC, Monster High: Skulltimate Secrets is a single-player 3D platformer that will have you bounding around the iconic Monster High school, as a new strange and mysterious threat comes to the fore.
As the newest member of the Boo Crew, containing heroes like Draculaura, Frankie Stein and others, you’ll create your own custom character, making use of the numerous hair, clothing and scareccessories options.
Then, it’s time to hit the halls of the school, and put a stop to the chaos gripping the school tightly!
