Starting Thursday, April 2, 2026, this campaign aims to inspire creativity, confidence, and self-expression among players worldwide.
Following a partnership announcement earlier this January, this special event introduces the Barbie Style Studio, offering fans new customization tools and fashion-forward options to personalize Talking Angela and her environment.
The Barbie Style Studio Experience
The core of the integration is the Barbie Style Studio, where players can design unique outfits by mixing and matching clothing options, colors, patterns, and stickers. To guide them through the creative process, Barbie “Malibu” Roberts and Barbie “Brooklyn” Roberts appear in-game to help Angela craft her signature looks.
The event features a wide array of content, including:
- Optional Customization Content: Players can enhance Angela’s home with Barbie-themed furniture and choose from three new outfits based on the Barbie Deluxe Style Dolls, available via in-game purchases.
- Free Barbie Outfit (Coming Later This Spring): A Barbie-inspired outfit will be unlockable for all players during the event. Interestingly, this outfit is already available for Apple
- Arcade subscribers as part of an early access rollout.
- Barbie Makeup (Coming Later This Spring): New cosmetic options including mascara, lipstick, and blush—designed with Barbie’s signature color palette—will be added soon. Like the outfits, this feature is already live for Apple Arcade users.
- World Decorations: Barbie-themed aesthetics will refresh the game’s main scenes, adding playful colors and stylish details throughout Angela’s world.
Global Availability
The Barbie integration in My Talking Angela 2 is available globally on all major platforms. While the full rollout begins today, select features continue to offer early access to the Apple Arcade community, ensuring a steady stream of content throughout the spring season.
This collaboration marks a significant step in Mattel‘s strategy to expand Barbie’s footprint in the digital gaming space, merging a legendary fashion IP with one of the most popular mobile virtual pet franchises.
