Game Updates Are Springing Up on Nex Playground

This Spring is off to a playful start. Nex Playground released 7 game updates over the last 6 weeks, and there are even more to come! 

We don’t want you to miss out on any of the active fun, so here’s a full round-up of every new and coming soon update.

The March Game Updates

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Rooftop Mayhem game on Nex Playground game tile linking to game details

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Rooftop Mayhem

The turtle brothers received a huge update last month, adding 2 new bosses and unlockable Story Snippets to the game

Now, after defeating BeBop, you’ll continue running towards new battles with Rocksteady and Superfly.  

And if you’re a fan of achievements, be sure to check out the new Story area on the menu screen.

When you reach certain game milestones, you’ll unlock Story Snippets. These comic book pages are a fun, nostalgic throwback to the early days of the TMNT craze. Can you collect them all?

Barbie Dance Party game on Nex Playground

Barbie Dance Party

Two new songs, with brand new choreography, are now available in Barbie Dance Party! 

Now you can boogie down to “Choose Your Fighter” by Ava Max and “Try it On” from Barbie herself.

Two new rooms are now open in  Gabby’s Dollhouse — the Bedroom and the Playroom.

Miraculers — are you ready for another update? 

Keep de-evilizing the streets of Paris with two new stages in Adventure mode. Then end your run with an epic battle against Monarch, the newest boss to join the game

Kung Fu Panda: Train Like a Master game tile

Kung Fu Panda: Train Like a Master

Did you catch the  Kung Fu Panda National Panda Day update? This fan-favorite game now has loads of new collectibles and arenas to unlock. We’ve also added Po’s voice to the training levels for better accessibility across all ages and skill levels.

The April Game Updates

Spring Break Event

The Nex Playground Spring Break event will continue through April 30th. 

If you’ve been waiting for new unlockable items in Bowling Strike!, now is the time to get those balls rolling.

Mirrorama, is also joining the fun with an egg hunt. Want to read more about this limited-time update (including how you can join the exclusive community challenge)? Check out  this article for the details. 


Doodle Heads game tile

Doodle Heads

Doodle Heads just received a  community-inspired update, adding more levels and new, scribbly bosses to tackle.



From the boss’s designs to their attack styles, our players drove this update. Did your kiddo submit a drawing or idea? Head to Doodle Heads now to spot their inspiring scribbles. 


Starri game tile

Starri

We’re always looking to add more beats to this popular rhythm game. But, as Nex works through new licensing agreements, we also have made the difficult decision to let some songs go.

While the mid-April update includes 4 new classical remixes, Starri is saying goodbye to its collection of Asian pop songs.

Don’t worry — favorites like Believer, Levitating, and Poker Face are here to stay, with more songs you know and love coming in future updates. 

In the meantime, keep slashing and catching your way through the different levels, now collecting ⭐stars⭐ along the way.

Even more active play is coming — stay tuned!
