Outright Games has shared a new gameplay trailer for The Addams Family: Mansion Mayhem, a new game based on the hit franchise that's set to launch on Switch later this year.
As we learned upon its initial announcement back in May, the game is a 3D platform adventure that boasts four-player co-op, complete with a character roster that includes the likes of Wednesday, Pugsley, Gomez, and Morticia. Your goal is to explore the mansion and solve puzzles to save it from a "hair-raising unwelcome visitor".
The trailer (up above) shows off some of the platform worlds you'll visit during your adventure, including The Gruesome Fun Kitchen, The Kooky Graveyard, The Treacherous Tuneful Music Room and The Laboratory, as well as a quick look at a variety of minigames that'll be included.
Fittingly, the game's launching just in time for Halloween with a 24th September release date set in (tomb)stone. Sorry. If you're liking what you see in the new footage, that really isn't long to wait at all!

This unexpectedly looks like a lot of fun! Definitely keeping my eye out for it.
This looks like a PS2 game and looks anything but fun.
@HotGoomba : great! I had loads of fun ps2 games. Nowadays most modern games aren’t fun at all.
@Clammy I don't know what games you had on the PS2, I bet that most of them were great, but this game looks like trash and looks really bad visually. Of course, you're subject to different opinions, but I think that this looks awful. Like the movie.
@HotGoomba : oh, so a game is only as fun as it’s visuals?
That must be why I don’t get bored of most modern games in 5 minutes…. Wait.. that’s a lie.
@Clammy Never said that, but this looks like a poorly made game, and to me looks boring.
Maybe comparing it to PS2 games wasn't my best choice because I've seen some beautiful PS2 games that look good even today.
@SeaFishelle if anything, they initially said the opposite of that

I sure hope this game is fun. I LOVE The Addams Family (older ones from when I was much younger). Morticia was sooooo hot in the original series.
It's a bit odd considering the movie is already a few years old. Or are they releasing another one?
@Eel If they are, I haven't heard anything about it.
@SeaFishelle I literally NEVER said that, stop putting words in my mouth, I don't want to get into an argument over a game about a garbage movie.
Also I was going back on my initial statement because it made me seem like I hated the PS2.
It's so weird that PHL Collective made this
@Eel I doubt that a sequel is happening since I think that it did poorly in the box office and critically.
@HotGoomba I'd just ignore them. Seems they had a bad day and want to take it out on you, bud.
Couldn't watch. Too spooky.
Looks like a fun multiplayer minigame collection. If it was another license I might not think it looks fun, but the Adams Family is different from the usual bright colorful kids show games usually in this genre. PS: The Adams Family movie from 2019 was decently well received, and while not a huge hit, was a moderate success. It made over $200m on a $24m budget. Hence why this game exists.
@HotGoomba and the producers apparently don't: https://youtu.be/Kd82bSBDE84
@HotGoomba : "I've seen some beautiful PS2 games that look good even today."
Why does that make them play any good or not?
@Clammy I can see where this conversation is going, so I'm just gonna stop talking to you.
Kinda reminds me of games like Ratchet and Clank: All 4 One and Spongebob: Plankton's robotic revenge if you've played any of those
@HotGoomba : Fair enough, just trying to understand mindset of only buying games based on visuals.
@nhSnork Oh no what the hell are they thinking
@HotGoomba that some folks like myself will go see it, too. And they aren't necessarily wrong about that.
@McGruber don’t let facts ruin people’s assumptions of what a failure is….. some one told him on YouTube it’s a flop so it must be true….
This looks terrible, not a patch on the Snes and Megadrive classics.
@PoliticallyIncorrect Do you also like the two moves The Addams Family (1991) and The Adams Family Values? I certainly do.
@LaytonPuzzle27 I do! After those though, I haven't seen any. I haven't heard the greatest news about the newer ones.
May get it as a Halloween night party game.
I don’t really like this style of the Addams Family. So I’ll be skipping this.

@HotGoomba Don't worry bud, I knew what you mean't.

@Clammy try learning to read the comments and you'll realize you misunderstood hotgoombas original point. Now you are digging a deeper hole for yourself.
@Moistnado : You guys are strange. Im just replying to his points.
If you are Adams Family Lovers/Haters/etc thats up to you

I've played the original Addams Family 2d game by Ocean and it was one or the best 2d's I've played.
@Clammy: A is for apple.

I am looking forward to this, so hope it is fun. I really like the old Addams Family games and movies, and thought the new movie was decent as well.
