About
A cozy, creative world inspired by Barbie invites players to reimagine the iconic DreamHouse. Style each room with a fabulous collection of furniture, decor, and accessories inspired by real Barbie playsets released over the past 65-plus years. To access many of the playset items, Barbie will challenge players to reach achievements by playing a collection of Barbie video games from the 1990s and 2000s.
The 16 classic Barbie video games—including such favorites as Barbie Pet Rescue and Barbie Horse Adventures: Blue Ribbon Race—have been enhanced to be accessible on today’s consoles.
