Mons, Belgium, July 20, 2026
Belgian developer and publisher Balio Studio, together with French animation studio HARI, today confirmed that Grizzy and the Lemmings – Crazy Party will launch digitally on August 7, 2026 for Nintendo Switch (Nintendo Switch 2 compatible), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Crazy Party is the first game based on one of the most widely distributed animated comedies in the world. The International Emmy nominated series airs in 200 territories, draws more than two billion YouTube views every year, and ranks in Netflix's Top 10 for kids aged six and over, including in the United States. It is a consistent top three programme on the BBC, France Télévisions and Super RTL, and reaches American households through Roku, Amazon Prime and Pluto TV. The show is told entirely without dialogue, which is exactly why its humour travels, and the game is built on the same principle: anyone can pick up a controller and understand what to do within seconds.
Players take on the role of the Lemmings across five boards drawn straight from the show, all in pursuit of Grizzy's precious jar of Yummy. Rules are simple enough for younger players to jump in immediately, while 50 mini games keep the competition alive for the whole family. On Nintendo Switch, four players can share a single console with one Joy-Con each, with no additional hardware required.
KEY FEATURES
• 50 mini games spanning action, reflex, timing and co-operative challenges
• 6 game modes for different group sizes and session lengths
• 5 boards inspired by locations from the animated series
• 40 unlockable Lemmings and 150 collectible stickers
• 1 to 4 players in local multiplayer, single Joy-Con per player on Nintendo Switch
• Available in 30 languages
Grizzy and the Lemmings – Crazy Party is available to pre-order now on the Nintendo eShop, at 25% off until release. On all other platforms, the game can be added to wishlists today on the PlayStation Store, Xbox, Steam and the Epic Games Store.
