Yesterday during the Xbox Games Showcase, Anapurna Interactive revealed Mixtape by Beethoven and Dinosaur. This coming-of-age action adventure revolves around mixtapes, and will feature music from DEVO, Roxy Music, Lush, The Smashing Pumpkins, Iggy Pop, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Joy Division, and many more.
Mixtape follows three teenagers as they prepare to graduate high school and leave their Northern California hometown. En route to their final party together, a perfectly curated playlist draws them into dreamlike reenactments of the pivotal moments that shaped them. Players will immerse themselves in the teenage wasteland by playing through a mixtape of joyful gameplay, from skateboarding and flying to taking photos after hours at an abandoned theme park, hitting baseballs, and putting on a fireworks show from the backseat of a car. It’s the greatest hits of teenage friendship, from the first kiss to the last dance.
Mixtape draws inspiration from classic coming-of-age movies, bringing together nostalgic aimlessness, mischief, music, the highs and lows of adolescence, and the bittersweet feelings brought about by growth, transformation, and moving on.
Mixtape will release in 2025 for Windows, Xbox Series, and will be available day one on Game Pass. For more on Mixtape, stay tuned to GamingTrend.
