VANCOUVER – Atomic Cartoons, Cyber Group Studios and Outright Games have announced a new partnership to produce The Last Kids on Earth video game.
The new Netflix series is based on Max Brallier's bestselling books. The game is anticipated to launch in 2021 on consoles and PC. Atomic Cartoons is the Kids and Family Division of Thunderbird Entertainment.
The Last Kids on Earth video game will be created in consultation with the producers of the animated series, which began streaming on September 17, 2019. The intellectual property (IP) for the book series was optioned by Thunderbird's Kids and Family Division in 2017, and Netflix acquired the worldwide rights to the TV series in 2018, says the press release.
Earlier this year, Cyber Group Studios became the worldwide representative for merchandising, ancillary and second window TV rights when an agreement was reached in February. In May 2019, a Master Toy deal was announced with Jakks Pacific Inc. to develop a range of products, including action figures, activity toys, role-play accessories, vehicles, plush items, novelty items, games, and play electronics. The toy line is set to hit shelves around the world in 2020.
