Okay, as a long-time player of June’s Journey, this is the kind of news that gets me seriously hyped! The developer, Wooga, just announced a massive crossover event with Wicked: For Good, bringing the magical world of the beloved musical right into our game. Get ready, because this event kicks off on November 1st and will run all the way through January 31st, 2026!
This whole collaboration is tied to the upcoming release of the second part of the Wicked film series from Universal Pictures. You know, the one starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo? The first part did incredibly well, so it’s awesome to see the game get in on the action.
Explore the Magical Land of Oz in a Brand New Mystery
During this huge event, our favorite detective, June Parker, is taking a little detour from her usual work to solve a brand new mystery set in the Land of Oz. I can’t wait to see how her classic 1920s style blends with the fantasy world of witches and Munchkins.
From what they’ve shared, we’ll get to explore six new hidden object scenes inspired by iconic Wicked locations. I’m talking about places like the dazzling Emerald City, Munchkinland, and even Shiz University. We’ll be solving puzzles alongside some of the musical’s most memorable characters, which sounds amazing.
The whole crossover will run through the game’s Memoirs event format. If you’ve played these before, you know the drill: you collect packs with fragments that piece together June’s memories. This time, her story will intertwine with the world of Wicked, letting us uncover secrets from both worlds. And for the music fans out there, they’ve even included the classic anthem “Defying Gravity” as part of the in-game experience!
Celebrate the Eighth Anniversary with Spooky October Events
Before we head down the yellow brick road, don’t forget that June’s Journey is celebrating its eighth anniversary right now with a month-long “Spookyversary” event for October! There’s a ton going on that you won’t want to miss.
Right now, The Sapphire’s Secret event is live until October 15th. It’s a classic spooky mystery where June and Jack are stuck at the isolated Hôtel Saphir during a thunderstorm. It’s got a great ghostly vibe!
Here’s what else is coming up:
- From October 14th to 21st, you can join your club for the Club Mysteries event to earn a cool gothic gazebo decoration.
- Then, from October 20th to 22nd, the Detectives Needed challenge lets you bring new characters to your island with trick-or-treat themes.
- Finally, things wrap up with a Halloween-themed Sweep the Board event from October 25th to 31st, where the grand prize is a special stairway decoration.
It’s definitely a packed couple of months for us players! We’ll keep you posted on all the latest updates here at APK Games Tech — an APK file hub that shares news, reviews, and top game lists. Happy detecting!
