Hello, everyone!

That is right – Club Penguin Island is finally coming to PC and Mac!

Club Penguin Island first started off as a mobile game only. Being restricted to mobile means a restricted audience. Soon, however, that will change. In fact, very soon!

Well, all we know is that the highly anticipated 1.8 update will arrive “very early” in December. We were excited enough for igloos and a Holiday Party, but this announcement exceeded our expectations!

Did you see any cool hints within the video? Let me know in the comments!

Along with this live video, SGT Sparkles (Joe) made a post for the Island News blog. Make sure you check out all he had to say about the announcement!

“Club Penguin Island’s open beta is a project for the CPI team and the community to work on together. We’ll be hunting bothersome bugs and pesky glitches to get the desktop version of CPI ready for a full release, and we’d like your help.
