This is the first time in nearly ten years the franchise has had a game, going all the way back to 2015's Carmen Sandiego Returns. The game will use some elements from the old-school titles mixed with new elements so that you travel the world, gain clues, and eventually recover what was stolen.

Carmen Sandiego

The Carmen Sandiego game will enable players to traverse the globe, immersing themselves in vibrant cultures while visiting iconic cities and landmarks. From the bustling streets of Rio de Janeiro to the picturesque shrines in Tokyo, every corner of the world becomes their playground as they unravel elaborate capers and bring VILE's most elusive criminals to justice. Every decision players make will shape the outcome as they compile dossiers and race against the clock to foil VILE's nefarious plans. Whether playing through story-driven campaigns or classic modes, this modernized Carmen Sandiego experience promises to enthrall both new and long-time fans alike.

This game launch marks another big moment of growth in the Carmen Sandiego franchise. Since the 1980s, Carmen Sandiego has fascinated fans worldwide as they tried to capture her. In 2019, Carmen returned in the Emmy and Annie award-winning animated series on Netflix produced by HarperCollins Productions along with a robust publishing program of 10 books.  A live-action Carmen Sandiego movie is also in development at Netflix. The movie will be the first major live action story featuring the world's greatest thief.
