Digital Eclipse and Atari release Barbie Rewind on November 12, 2026 on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and Switch 2: a new DreamHouse decorating game plus Barbie games from 1991 to 2007, including the never-released Barbie Vacation Adventure, for $29.99.

Barbie Rewind, a new game from Digital Eclipse published by Atari, comes out on November 12, 2026. It mixes a brand-new DreamHouse decorating game with a collection of Barbie video games released between 1991 and 2007, plus one that never came out: Barbie Vacation Adventure for Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo. Here is what is in it, where you can play it and what it costs. A few points, such as euro prices and the exact unlock time on every store, are still not confirmed officially.

Release date, platforms and editions

  • Release date: November 12, 2026, according to the Steam and PlayStation Store pages. The PlayStation Store lists 2:00 p.m. UTC, that is 3:00 p.m. in Paris; other stores do not show a time.
  • Platforms: PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.
  • Price announced by Atari: $29.99 for the digital version and for the Standard physical edition (PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch), $59.99 for the Deluxe physical edition.
  • Deluxe physical edition: Atari's store says it is only available for Nintendo Switch, in a numbered box limited to 20,000 units, with the Standard game, a poster and an exclusive Barbie Rewind doll wearing an Atari t-shirt. (Digital Eclipse's own page also mentions PlayStation 5; we follow the June 6 press release and Atari's store, which say Switch only.)

What you actually do in Barbie Rewind

The new part is a cozy pixel-art decorating game. Barbie asks you to redo her DreamHouse with more than 250 pieces of furniture, decor and accessories inspired by real Barbie playsets from the last 65+ years. You pick from three retro DreamHouse designs for the facade, walls and floors, and you can mix them from room to room. Barbie calls you with quests; completing them earns XP and unlocks more items. Ken, Teresa and Christie also ask for help with their own designs, and a digital Lookbook tells the story behind some DreamHouses and playsets.


The two parts are linked: according to the announcement, many items are unlocked by reaching achievements in the classic games.
