Mixtape is an adventure game developed by Beethoven & Dinosaur and published by Annapurna Interactive for Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X/S, released on 7 May 2026. It follows a group of teenage friends on their last day together before going their separate ways, set to a curated playlist of tracks chosen by the protagonist Stacey Rockford. Game director Johnny Galvatron drew narrative inspiration from the films of John Hughes, formulating the three main characters after the 1990s era of Hughes' films. Beethoven & Dinosaur acquired the license to several of Galvatron's favorite songs to incorporate into its levels, including music by Devo, Smashing Pumpkins, Iggy Pop, and Joy Division. Critics largely praised Mixtape, particularly for its narrative elements and references to 1990s America. It received criticism from players over the limited gameplay and short run-time, with some accusing the game's positive critical reviews of being part of an astroturfing campaign.
