Earlier today, the developers at Funsolve has revealed a new gameplay trailer for the upcoming Jumanji: The Video Game.
You can watch the trailer on the video below:
According to the developer, the game will be based on the Jumanji film franchise, featuring 4 characters as playable: Dr. Smolder Bravestone, Ruby Roundhouse, Franklin “Mouse” Finbar and Professor Shelly Oberon. The game will support up to 4-player co-op mode, both online or via split-screen.
Along with the trailer is great news for fans of the franchise: the game's release date will be moved up one week earlier - which is November 8th, 2019. The game's original release date was November 15, 2019.
The Jumanji video game is actually a companion game of the recently released movie: 'Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle'. In this game, you will have to find the Jumanji jewels and save the world. Each of the playable characters will have their own set of abilities - and you can combine those unique abilities with each other to stay alive and clears the challenges set by the game's world.
There are plenty of actions here at the game, too, as the trailer showed us the hand-to-hand combat with the enemies. You can also toss poison or throw weapons at foes, too. The jungle in the game are filled with traps, so you also have to be careful to stay alive.
The world of Jumanji was inspired by a series of picture books by Chris Van Allsburg - and it prove to be popular enough to have made into a movie in 1995, with a sequel released later and a reboot movie in 2017. The upcoming video game was based from the 2017 remake, features characters that was portrayed in the movie like Dr. Smolder Bravestone by Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.
Jumanji: The Video Game will be released on November 8th, 2019, for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
