Give me a lighthearted recap
Stranger Things just kicked off its final season, and while there are several games to enjoy that are directly based on the series, the actual stars of the show have their own picks. That includes Millie Bobby Brown, who has played "Eleven" since the beginning and has been a fixture of the series ever since.
Interestingly, she also plays games in her spare timeand has a few favorite video games that would pair nicely with the release of the first part of Season 5 of the show.
Millie Bobby Brown's Favorite Games Are Sims 4 & Fortnite
Both Picks Have Withstood The Test Of Time
Millie Bobby Brown revealed that she loves to play The Sims 4 and Fortnite, which are still two powerhouse games today. The former is still hosting expansion packs, and the latter is getting ready to wrap up a mini-season based on The Simpsons.
According to Brown, she enjoys creating houses and roleplaying as a veterinarian in The Sims, and "bush camps" in Fortnite. It's a testament to how accessible both games are, as pretty much anyone can fit them into their schedules due to their light nature.
Both Games Can Be Great For Stranger Things Fans
They Are Both Easy To Get Into, As Well
Having played both actively, I can attest that they're incredibly easy to pick up, especially with friends and family. They can also be great games for Stranger Things fans.
The Sims has plenty of expansion packs at this point and has delved into the world of spooky, occult happenings, which pair well with the often harrowing tone of the Stranger Things series. Although it's not quite the same intensity (especially when it comes to the level of violence the show frequently dips into), it can be a great way to unwind after an emotional episode.
Fortnite also deals with multiversal forces, which the citizens of Hawkins in the TV show know a few things about. Chapter 1, Season 9 of Fortnite also hosted a full Stranger Things crossover, complete with extras, like Upside Down gates. To date, Hopper, Dustin, Lucas, Mike, Will, Vecna, Eleven, and the Demogorgon all appear in the game as skins.
While Stranger Things isn't going to end entirely with the fifth and final season (assuredly, there are more spinoffs in the works, in addition to what's already announced), for now, you can enjoy the conclusion of the story that started all the way back in 2016. We've all been through so much since then, collectively.
