According to the original plan, the first console video game involving the characters Upin & Ipin was supposed to be launched in September last year. But September happened and we are now at the end of February. Today, finally, the trailer for Upin & Ipin Universe has been published via the official YouTube channel.
This short 19-second trailer simply shows the characters Upin and Ipin running home along with Tuk Dalang and Kak Ros. It simply says that the game will arrive in the near future without a new launch date. According to the original plan, Upin & Ipin Universe will be available on the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 consoles with the game being developed by Streamline Studios at a cost of around RM15 million.
What kind of gameplay will be offered is still a mystery so far due to the very limited information shared by Les Copaque and Streamline. What is certain is that many are waiting for the launch of this first console game using local IP.
Previously, Upin & Ipin was only offered in the form of Upin & Ipin KipiBlock, Upin & Ipin Dash and Upin & Ipin Metrobot for Android and iOS devices.
