Peppa Pig knows how to get to Sesame Street …. just turn on Netflix.
After the streaming giant announced a deal for the children’s TV staple earlier Monday, it followed up with the news that new episodes of Peppa Pig will stream on Netflix. The title character will also anchor a new mobile game, World of Peppa Pig, and a Sesame Street game is now in the works as Netflix ramps up in the kids gaming sector.
In a blog post, Netflix said World of Peppa Pig is an umbrella for a collection of mini-games and videos designed around puzzle-solving, memory, counting, object recognition, and matching patterns. The games and videos are aimed at teaching kids key life skills. Plus, “adjustable difficulty levels make it easy to tailor the game’s challenges to your tot,” Netflix noted.
Peppa Pig, created in 2004 by Neville Astley and Mark Baker, remains a part of Hasbro‘s portfolio of kids entertainment properties. It had been part of eOne, which was acquired by Hasbro, and stayed in the fold after Lionsgate acquired the rest of eOne in 2024.
