Embark on a thrilling adventure with the beloved characters from Stranger Things in Stranger Things 3: The Game, a captivating action role-playing game that mirrors the events of the hit Netflix series' third season.

Immerse Yourself in the World of Hawkins

Stranger Things 3: The Game is the official companion game to the third season of Stranger Things, revisiting familiar scenes and adding a dash of 80s nostalgia through a unique retro art style. This action RPG will guide you through the narrative, offering quests that introduce you to the key locations in Hawkins. These quests range from intriguing puzzles to collectible hunts, and occasionally, tense boss battles against the horrors of the Upside Down.

The game features 12 unlockable characters, each with their own individual combat style and unique abilities. Initially, players can only control Mike and Lucas but as you progress, characters such as Eleven, Dustin, Will, Hopper, and others become available. These characters can also be equipped and powered up with various items found throughout Hawkins.

Experience Teamwork in Action

Like the series, Stranger Things 3: The Game emphasizes the importance of teamwork. Players can team up with two others for a local co-op game, combining character abilities for powerful combo attacks. But don't worry if you prefer to play alone, the game also includes a solo campaign where you can control both characters using buddy commands.

After completing the main game, players can unlock the challenging Eliminator mode, where all characters are available from the start. However, once a character dies in this mode, they remain dead for the rest of the game.

A Must-Play for Fans of the Series

Stranger Things 3: The Game is a delightful bonus for fans who can't get enough of the Stranger Things universe. It allows players to delve deeper into the storyline of the third season, offering a fresh perspective on the series. Some may find it merely a retelling of the show, but for true fans, it's an opportunity to spend a little more time in the world of Hawkins.
