About Blankos Block Party

Blankos Block Party, an open-world multiplayer game with a heavy focus on player-designed levels, is the debut title from Mythical, a new studio led by game industry veterans who helped develop major franchises including Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, Guitar Hero and Skylanders. Coming to PC in 2020, the inclusive world is styled like a giant block party, where players can compete on levels created by Mythical or by the community, build their own minigames to share, take on daily challenges and more! 

The stars of Blankos Block Party are collectible interactive digital vinyl toys called Blankos, designed by some of the world’s top artists including John-Paul Kaiser, Tara McPherson and Pete Fowler. Unlike other games, where the content you pay for is only licensed, in Blankos Block Party players will have ownership of the Blankos they buy, eliminating the need for grey markets and allowing the community to dictate the value of what is bought and sold in secondary marketplaces supported by Mythical.

Blankos Block Party is developed by Mythical in partnership with Third Kind Games, and will be self-published by Mythical.
