EA Mobile has announced its partnership with US film production company Illumination Entertainment to develop a mobile game tie-in to the upcoming film The Secret Life of Pets.

The pair previously partnered for Minions Paradise in 2015.

Reunited

The game, entitled The Secret Life of Pets: Unleashed, will be a match-3 puzzler featuring 3D animations and minigames. 

“We at EA are thrilled to work with Illumination Entertainment, the creators of the record-setting Despicable Me and Minions franchise, to bring you the official matching puzzle game for The Secret Life of Pets,” said Michelle Bizzarro, Game General Manager at EA.

“Together, we set out to combine the features, functionality and challenge of a match-3 game with the storyline and humor of an animated feature so you can interact with these insanely cute pets before and even after watching the film.”

The Secret Life of Pets: Unleashed should be available for free on the App Store and Google Play imminently. For more information, you can visit the game's official website.
