Barbie Horse Trails review

Barbie Horse Trails gives Barbie fans an open world to explore on horseback. Released on October 10, 2025, it sends Barbie and her horse Lucky into Canterbury Trails Park, where players train as Junior Rangers with Head Ranger Annalise, help Ken's aunt Lady Carson refresh the park, and dig for ceramics with an archaeologist. Riding covers fields, forests, mountains and a lake, and a camera lets players photograph wildlife and save discoveries to a journal. Horse care includes cleaning, grooming and feeding, and Lucky can wear bridles, saddles, braids, ribbons and clips. Players pick Barbie "Brooklyn" Roberts or Barbie "Malibu" Roberts. It costs $39.99 on Steam, the joint highest price here, and Steam feedback is the weakest on the list at 68% positive across 32 reviews. The PC needs 8 GB of RAM, a GTX 960 class card and 16 GB of storage, and Steam lists it as single player.
