Outfit7, the company behind the popular Talking Tom & Friends franchise, is set to release a new game called My Talking Hank: Islands on July 4th for both iOS and Google Play. This free expansion to the original My Talking Hank game, released in 2017, offers players a whole new experience with free-roaming gameplay and a plethora of new content.
In an interview with GamesBeat, Jernej ?esen, the general manager of Outfit7, expressed his excitement about this new release, stating that it will completely change the game market’s expectations for titles in the Talking Tom universe. The team from Slovenia aimed to create an immersive experience for fans that goes beyond just gaming, including video content and physical products that complement each other.
My Talking Hank: Islands aims to provide players with an immersive exploration experience unlike anything seen before in the Talking Tom franchise. The game allows players to freely roam around the game world, interact with wildlife, and discover hidden secrets and collectibles. Additionally, players will have the opportunity to bond with new animal friends such as a lion, turtle, elephant, dolphin, and monkey through various mini-games and activities.
One unique feature of My Talking Hank: Islands is the ability for players to decorate and customize Hank’s Tree House with different decorations, creating the perfect island getaway for their furry friend. The game also includes new mini-games and features like an ice cream machine to enhance the summer vibes. Players who download the game within the first two weeks will receive an exclusive Dino outfit for Hank.
The concept of My Talking Hank: Islands originated from the developers’ desire to offer players more than just a traditional virtual pet experience. By focusing on immersive exploration and giving players the freedom to control Hank and explore the game world, Outfit7 aims to create a long-lasting and memorable gaming experience for its users.
Looking ahead, Outfit7 has plans to introduce more updates, new games, characters, and companion products to expand the Talking Tom universe. With the success of My Talking Hank: Islands, the company is also considering the possibility of introducing new characters like Ginger, who has yet to have her own game. The developers are committed to staying true to their core values while continuously evolving and strengthening their team to deliver innovative and engaging content to their audience.
