Available in November 2014, the brand-new video game is based on Ubisoft and Nickelodeon's highly successful "Rabbids Invasion" TV series created by Ubisoft Motion Pictures and is broadcast in several territories, including on Nickelodeon channels in the USA, UK and Germany. Launched in Fall 2013, the hit TV show has already been viewed more than 280 million times worldwide. The video game enables kids to jump into a selection of 20 episodes of the popular TV show and participate in the action on-screen.
The Rabbids are a true pop culture phenomenon and these wacky creatures have no plans to stop their rampage any time soon. Specific details on retailers, pricing and availability for Rabbids-inspired products can be found in Ubisoft's original press release announcing the Bwahsome news.
