DreamWorks SPIRIT LUCKY'S BIG ADVENTURE Gallops Onto Consoles And PC

DreamWorks Spirit Lucky's Big Adventure was released on June 1, 2021, for Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and priced at $39.99/€39.99/£34.99. Outright Games, in collaboration with Universal Games and Digital Platforms, developed a video game that is inspired by the feature film Spirit Untamed (set for a U.S.release in theaters today, June 4, 2021).

You can watch the release trailers for other regions here:

In this game, you play as Lucky with her titular character and horse, with the name of “Spirit.” Let’s talk for a moment about the story. Lucky moved from a large city to the small town of Miradero. She moved with her father, and he was a railroad builder. While riding the train into Miradero, Lucky saw a wild horse and immediately fell in love with him. This mustang was later found in a barn within Miradero. Lucky and Spirit later became inseparable.

After watching the trailer, I realized that the game is not for me. I am thirty+ years past the target audience’s age. I showed it to my daughter to get her opinion of it. Her response: she liked it. I asked for more information. She said, “I like horses.” I took note of the gameplay where the climbing reminded me of Tomb Raider and Uncharted. Saying that the game is not for me is not in any way a slight. All games have a target audience and my daughter is that audience. She loves the Spirit show and wants to see the movie. I can only imagine that the game is something any fan would want to play.
