The Lumistella Company celebrates 20 years of the festive Santaverse characters.
The Lumistella Company and Outright Games are joining forces to launch a new game, The Elf on the Shelf: Christmas Heroes, to honor the 20th anniversary of the iconic Elf on the Shelf characters.
This video game, launching Oct. 17, brings players straight to the North Pole. Gamers ages 3 and up play as Scout Elf, who is on a journey to gather the Christmas Spirit and save the holiday season. Christmas Heroes offers a fantastical 2D puzzle-platforming experience, filled with mischief and cheer. The game will be available for download on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Steam and the Microsoft Store.
“Over the last two decades, The Elf on the Shelf has become a treasured part of the holiday season for so many families around the world,” says Chanda Bell, Co-Founder and CEO at The Lumistella Company. “From playful moments to heartfelt memories, the tradition has brought people together in meaningful ways. Through the launch of Christmas Heroes, we’re excited to offer a new way for families to engage with the magic, inviting them to create more joyful traditions and experience the North Pole like never before.”
Players adventure through the North Pole, at locations like Scout Elf Bootcamp and Santa’s workshop. They will play through 24 levels, each with interactive mini-games, puzzles, and cookie-themed obstacles.
