Netflix is set to launch an exciting new game, The Electric State: Kid Cosmo, in conjunction with their upcoming sci-fi adventure movie, The Electric State. The game, scheduled for release on March 18th, comes just four days after the film premieres on Netflix on March 14th. Directed by the acclaimed Russo brothers, the movie boasts a stellar cast including Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt, and follows a thrilling post-apocalyptic road trip across an alternate 1990s America filled with giant robots.

More Than Just a Movie Tie-In

The Electric State: Kid Cosmo isn't merely an adaptation of the film; it's a prequel that dives into the childhood of two pivotal characters, Chris and Michelle. Developed by BUCK Games, known for their acclaimed roguelite puzzle game Let's! Revolution!, in collaboration with AGBO, the game promises engaging gameplay with a retro-futuristic twist. Set in Wichita, Kansas, in 1985, players will navigate through puzzle adventures reminiscent of the WarioWare series, but with a distinct '80s flair. Over five years, the story will unfold, offering a deeper understanding of Chris and Michelle's journey before the events of the movie.
