This month I was invited to a XBox event hosted by Microsoft at Disneyland.  You all know how much I love anything to do with Disney and I was really excited to learn more about their latest game Disneyland Adventures and RUSH: A Disney Pixar Adventure.

 

After listening to Jorg Neumann, Head of Production at Microsoft Studios and John Dongelmans, Marketing Director of 1st Party Games (see our Facebook Live interview here) and getting a demo of the games, I was just blown away with the imagery and vivid colors.  Games have come a long way since my days of playing Pong.  Yes, I grew up playing Atari games with my little brother and it never ceases to amaze me to see how far games have come.  I do believe any Disney fan would love receiving these affordable games (priced competitively at $29.95 each) this just might be the must-have game of the season!

 

With Disneyland Adventures you are literally transported into the park.  And what makes it even more special is the fact that folks who haven’t had a chance to visit Disneyland yet, can do so virtually through this game.  It really is that realistic!  They spent so much time and took so many pictures of the park to get every detail down.  From the park bench colors to Disney characters featured, you will be transported into a Disney adventure.

 

Experience the magic of Disneyland like never before. Take a journey where stories come to life and dreams come true, right in your living room. Explore Disneyland park — from Main Street U.S.A. to Critter Country — join Peter Pan to battle Captain Hook, high-five Mickey Mouse or hug Snow White.

“Disneyland Adventures” allows children, families and Disney fans of all ages to explore Disneyland park, step into adventures based on attractions, engage in challenging quests and interact with beloved Disney characters remastered in 4K Ultra HD and HDR.
