Hello Kitty and Friends: Freeze Tag Party is an action game where popular Sanrio characters play an exciting game of tag in a magical world! Choose to be either the Challenger (runner) or the Hunter (chaser) and enjoy thrilling tag matches using each character’s magical skills.
Until now, Hello Kitty and Friends: Freeze Tag was a Japanese exclusive—but not anymore! Don’t be fooled by the cute graphics, pastel colors, and the rainbow on the cover, because this is a war game!
You appear on a map alongside other Sanrio characters, divided into “hunters” and “challengers.” Hunters must catch as many challengers as possible, while challengers need to hide and plan their skills carefully! It’s like a battle royale, except you don’t actually die—you just get caught (and there are no deadly weapons, thankfully…).
If you enjoy customization, you can even change your character’s outfit and leave your mark on the battleground while wearing your favorite attire! You can play solo or in co-op, either locally or online.
Both digital and physical editions will be available. Buying the physical edition comes with a sticker sheet set.
