The action-stealth video game Chicken Run: Eggstraction will be released by Outright Games, the top publisher of family-friendly interactive entertainment, in collaboration with Aardman, the multi-award-winning independent animation studio that created Wallace & Gromit and Chicken Run. This top-down heist game, which is based on the classic Chicken Run franchise, continues where Aardman’s 2023 film Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget left off, with the gang banding together to preserve chickenkind.
Check out the Chicken Run: Eggstraction Announce Trailer:
With an exciting new plot that carries on the exploits of its feathered heroes as they attempt to defend chickens from the wicked nugget industry, where chicken-kind is still in peril, Chicken Run: Eggstraction is a sequel to the film Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget. Assume control of the Chicken Run characters and set out to free the imprisoned chickens by breaking into five fortified farms. To guide these birds to freedom, players must go past a number of eggstra security mechanisms, so proceed with caution. Players’ stealth, abilities, and tactics will be put to the test as they dodge vigilant security cameras, hawkeyed humans, and hide among traffic cones. With enough space for two players in local cooperative, players can take on this intense journey by themselves or collaborate with a friend to devise a winning strategy.
Bella Ramsey and Josie Sedgwick-Davies reprise their roles as Molly and Frizzle in Chicken Run: Eggstraction, reprising their roles from Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget. In addition to a surprising appearance from the most recent Wallace & Gromit movie, players will encounter new wacky poultry villains in this story, which was written by Larry Rickard, one of Dawn of the Nugget’s authors. Building on the popularity of Dawn of the Nugget, which had millions of views and made it into the Global Top 10, Chicken Run: Eggstraction offers families and fans an exciting new tale and gameplay that is sure to make people laugh.
Sean Clarke, Managing Director at Aardman stated, “We are delighted to be working with Outright Games to bring a new Chicken Run adventure to the gaming community. Developing a game of this scale has been an exciting endeavour and has been a fantastic opportunity to expand the Chicken Run universe and continue building the brand in new and engaging ways for fans old and new.”
Stephanie Malham, Managing Director of Outright Games stated, “We’re incredibly excited to be working with Aardman on the release of Chicken Run: Eggstraction, and the first Chicken Run video game in 25 years. Aardman’s style is so distinct, and it’s been amazing to see how they’ve adapted it for a video game. We cannot wait for fans of all ages to explore this new chapter in the Chicken Run story, and to see how they can wing it through the chaos that awaits them.”
This autumn, Chicken Run: Eggstraction will be available on PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store, as well as the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
