The sequel to last year’s Hasbro Family Game Night features five new Hasbro games – Operation, Jenga, Bop It, Pictureka and Connect 4X4, for up to four players. In addition to their original gameplay mode, each classic game has several new modes, including Jenga Chance Blocks, where players bash escaping blocks.

Players will also have the chance to compete with family members and friends for the ultimate accolade, the Gold Potato trophy, and there are even opportunities to customise Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head with unlockable themes such as Tokyo Gamer and Wild West.
