Excitement builds as fans eagerly await the return of Carmen Sandiego in an upcoming game set to unveil her whereabouts around the globe. A new trailer has just dropped, revealing that players will have the opportunity to take control of the iconic character.
What is the New Carmen Sandiego Game?
The upcoming Carmen Sandiego game is a captivating single-player puzzle adventure developed by leading game studios. Drawing inspiration from the beloved original 1980s edutainment series, this game allows players to step into Carmen’s shoes, shifting the narrative focus from chasing the elusive thief to embodying her character.
This unique gameplay approach provides a fresh perspective, enabling players to immerse themselves in Carmen’s thrilling world of espionage and exciting globe-trotting adventures. The game will also feature ‘Player,’ a character familiar to fans, who serves as Carmen’s loyal sidekick, assisting players in navigating missions, solving complex puzzles, and outsmarting her formidable adversaries.
In addition to the main campaign, the game will introduce a nostalgic classic mode known as The Acme Files. While details remain limited, this mode promises to be a heartfelt homage to the original Carmen Sandiego games of the ’80s, with Easter Eggs from both the classic titles and the recent animated series sprinkled throughout.
The Carmen Sandiego game is set to launch in Q1 2025, available on multiple platforms including PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.
Fans of the franchise can also look back at the Netflix animated series, which concluded with its fourth season in 2021, featuring eight exciting episodes.
