Aspyr and Ellen Digital Ventures have announced that Heads Up! Phones Down Edition has had a surprise launch, available on PC and consoles.
Phones Down Edition is a new spin on the hit mobile game Heads Up!, a charades-type party game where one player tries to guess the card they’ve drawn from the other player’s clues. The mobile version was first released back in May 2013 and has since been downloaded by over ten million players.
This edition still uses the same style of charades gameplay, but now it can be played on the corresponding system without anyone having to use a phone. The Phones Down Edition retails for $39.99, but there’s currently a twenty-five percent launch discount on the PlayStation Store, Nintendo eShop, and Steam.
Heads Up! Phones Down will include over 90 different decks, including the following:
- Act It Out
- Animals Gone Wild
- Blockbuster Movies
- Hey Mr. DJ
- Accents And Impressions
- Food Fight
- Adult Supervision
- Adult Supervision 2 Even Adultier
And, here’s an overview of the key features of Heads Up! Phones Down Edition, via Aspyr.
- Heads Up! Is a Party Game: Turn your back to the TV and guess the word or phrase on the screen behind you with the help of your friends or family.
- That Invites Everyone to Play: It doesn’t matter if you’re an expert or you’ve never played before—anyone can jump right in!
- And Be Silly: Observers can give hints by using funny accents, acting out, and shouting clues while the guesser tries to figure out the word on the screen. OR break down in desperation when they can’t figure it out.
- For Endless Hours: There are over 90 decks covering pop culture, movies, trivia, celebrities, animals, and so much more!
Heads Up! Phones Down Edition is currently available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
