Square Enix :
LOS ANGELES (October 10, 2024) - Today, Square Enix Collective® and FuturLab® announced the release of the Shrek Special Pack, in partnership with Universal Products & Experiences. The latest expansion is available now on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4 (PS4®), PlayStation®5 (PS5®).
Watch the Shrek Special Pack release trailer here.
In the Shrek Special Pack, players will clean up five fairy tale maps inspired by DreamWorks Animation’s Shrek. It will take more than a little magic dust to restore these iconic locales to their former lustre, but thankfully, happily ever after is in your hands! The charming maps in this noble quest include:
Duloc
Hansel’s Honeymoon Hideaway
Shrek’s Swamp
Fairy Godmother’s Potion Factory
Dragon’s Lair
A sprinkle of soap, a touch of elbow grease, and a large dose of ‘DING’s make for the perfect antidote potion. Players will wash it all down with a swish of high-pressure water and have these enchanting locations look as spotless as the Magic Mirror.
An all-star cast of beloved characters invites players to reinstate Duloc back to its pristine glory, breathe life into Dragon’s Lair, and restore Shrek’s Swamp to, well, just the right amount of muck!
Become a knight in shining armor and defeat dubious debris in this Special Pack – a task befitting a true hero. The Shrek Special Pack features a custom knight character model armed with a sword-themed power washer that lets players go forth and conquer grime!
The Shrek Special Pack is out now on PC (via Steam and Windows), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4 (PS4®), PlayStation®5 (PS5®).
PowerWash Simulator (base game) is also currently included in the Steam Free weekend, running from 10-13 October.
In POWERWASH SIMULATOR, players wash away their worries with the soothing sounds of high-pressure water. Players can build their very own power washing business and blast away every speck of dirt and grime that they can find. With a unique take on the simulation genre, POWERWASH SIMULATOR focuses on player relaxation and escapism.
