Bluey’s Happy Snaps will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store on October 15, publisher Gameloft and developer Gameloft Brisbane announced.
“Many of us who worked on developing Bluey’s Happy Snaps are parents ourselves, which is why we wanted to create a game that we could feel proud and comfortable playing with our own kids, one that encourages creativity,” said Gameloft Brisbane studio manager Manea Castet in a press release. “Between chasing bin chickens or playing a game of taxi using things lying around the house, we hope that the fun they find in the game inspires them to keep playing off-screen, stopping to take a closer look at the world around them.”
BBC Studios gaming and interactive global director Marina Mello added, “Bluey’s Happy Snaps invites children and families to play, explore, and capture moments in a photo-powered adventure. Whether you are snapping memories solo or side-by-side with a second player, you will discover the unique and wonderful Australian wildlife, wander through familiar Brisbane locations and turn in-game moments into real fun for real life. The game reflects our ambition to create interactive experiences that extend what fans love about Bluey beyond the series.”

About
In Bluey’s Happy Snaps, Bluey and Bingo find Dad’s old camera and set off on an exciting family trip. Through the lens of this camera, players explore Bluey’s family home and iconic locations around Brisbane, snapping photos, decorating scrapbooks, and uncovering charming surprises.
Many fan-favorite locations make their videogame debut in Bluey’s Happy Snaps, fully transformed into immersive environments for players to explore. Hop aboard the ferry to The Park (as seen in “Spy Game”), chase cheeky bin chickens at South Bank (featured in the episode “Ice Cream”), or admire the stunning lookout view from “The Sign”, Bluey’s biggest episode ever! Each area is brimming with Australian wildlife, from colorful lorikeets to adorable koalas and many more species posing for their picture-perfect moment.
100 Percent Bluey
Bluey’s Happy Snaps stays faithful to the show, translating Bluey’s signature warmth, humor, and emotional storytelling into open-ended activities and playful fun and games specifically designed for kids. Developed in Bluey’s hometown, Bluey’s Happy Snaps draws inspiration from everyday places and the wonder of simple family moments that define the series. This connection brings a world filled with playful details designed for younger players, alongside polished gameplay that parents will adore.
A Game Created by Parents, for Families
Created by a development team of parents, Bluey’s Happy Snaps is designed to foster the natural curiosity and creativity of kids. Much like the global hit series, the game promotes growth and connection through play, encouraging younger players to experiment through sandbox-style gameplay. Emphasizing the value of real-life activity, the game’s “Play For Real Life” moments deliver meaningful, practical guidance for families to create moments together, even after screen time has ended.
And with “Cooperative Play” the fun is doubled! Through local co-op play, two players can share the adventure together as Bluey and Bingo. Test your photography skills as the main player leads the adventure behind the camera, while the second player strikes a pose! With plenty of toys made for “Cooperative Play”, two players can experience the fun together in this game mode designed to be enjoyed by kiddos and grown-ups of all ages.
Bluey’s Happy Snaps is a premium experience with no in-game purchases and no online play.
