Bluey’s Happy Snaps, a new Bluey game from Gameloft Brisbane aimed squarely at families, is coming to Xbox Game Pass on day one on October 15, 2026. According to the announcement, it’ll be available on both console and PC.
This time, the team isn’t circling back to 2023’s Bluey: The Video Game. Bluey’s Happy Snaps goes in a different direction, built around exploration, photography, and collecting memories in a Pokémon Snap-style setup. You roam open areas as Bluey, take pictures, find small moments and hidden secrets, and piece everything together in a scrapbook.
Bluey: The Video Game got praise for how well it matched the show’s look, tone, and sense of humor, but a lot of reviews also called out how short it was. So a bigger game with more reasons to come back feels like a pretty direct response to that, and Gameloft Brisbane also seems like a strong match for a property that’s so distinctly Australian.
If Game Pass in your house gets used by younger players, this looks like an easy one to pick up. The announcement says you can play solo or in offline co-op, with a second player joining as Bingo. You’re also getting familiar characters, recognizable locations, and easter eggs, with no microtransactions in the mix.
According to the announcement, Bluey’s Happy Snaps will hit Game Pass the same day it goes on sale through the relevant tiers, including Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass. It joins October additions Echo Weaver and Neon Abyss 2 on October 8 and Valor Mortis on October 13, alongside existing draws such as Battlefield 6.
