Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer A prequel video game based on directors Joe and Anthony Russo’s upcoming Netflix film “The Electric State” will launch a few days after the movie hits the streamer on March 14.
Set in the aftermath of a robot uprising in an alternate version of the ’90s, “The Electric State” follows orphaned teenager Michelle (Millie Bobby Brown) who ventures across the American West with cartoon-inspired robot Cosmo, low-rent smuggler Keats (Chris Pratt) and his wisecracking robot sidekick Herman (voiced by Anthony Mackie) in search of her younger brother, Chris.
A prequel to “The Electric State,” the mobile game “The Electric State: Kid Cosmo” is described as a “bite-sized adventure puzzle game” that focuses on Michelle and Chris.
Per Netflix and the Russos’ media company AGBO, “This narrative-driven game takes place before the events of the movie and spans five years, blending gameplay with emotional storytelling to create an immersive experience.” “The Electric State: Kid Cosmo” will launch March 18 on iOS and Android.
