While the game was not initially released for the Xbox 360 or the PlayStation 3, Pictureka!, Jenga, and Connect 4x4 were added asdownloadable content to the original game on June 23, 2010.

In May 2009, Electronic Arts announced that they would release a sequel toFamily Game Night, effectively titledFamily Game Night 2, in the fall for the Wii and Nintendo DS, of which the latter would be a "best of" compilation.^[2][3]

The game was re-released with the first entry as part of theHasbro Family Game Night Value Pack on November 9, 2010, where both entries were bundled together on a single disc.^[4] It was re-released again on November 1, 2011 asHasbro Family Game Night Fun Pack,^[5] this time with the third entry. It was also released on the Xbox 360, which marked the full game's debut on the latter system.^[6]

Family Game Night 3 takes place on an island, with atheme park style setting. This time round, the player can choose either Mr. or Mrs. Potato Head as their host, who is once again fully customizable with unlockable accessories and clothing.

Miis and Xbox Avatars return as the playable characters for the Wii and Xbox 360 versions, while the PlayStation 3 uses a custom avatar maker in its place.

A third entry in the series was teased in EA's release cycle for the fiscal year 2011.^[7] The game was officially announced in May 2010 for a fall release, as with the prior entries.^[8]

The game was re-released as a single-disc package with the second entry as part of theHasbro Family Game Night Fun Pack for the Wii and the Xbox 360 on November 1, 2011.^[9][10]

Hasbro Family Game Night 4: The Game Show is the fourth and final entry in the series, released for the PlayStation 3, Wii, and Xbox 360. This installment is a lot different than the previous entries; it was developed byWahoo Studios instead of EA Bright Light, and was based onthe series' TV game show adaptation onThe Hub. Its hostTodd Newton supplied the game's commentary.

The game is based on the first season of the game show, and adapts several games from it:Bop It! Boptagon,Connect 4 Basketball,Scrabble Flash/Boggle Flash,Sorry! Sliders andYahtzee Bowling.^[11] As withFamily Game Night 3, the Wii and Xbox 360 versions use Miis and Xbox Avatars as playable characters, while the PlayStation 3 version uses its own avatars.

The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions addmotion controller support (PlayStation Move andKinect), of which the functionality was previously exclusively used in theWii version using the Wii Remote, like with the prior installments. Unlike the previous entries, this one lacksan online mode due to the game being released as a $40 budget title and thus ineligible to be included on EA'sonline pass.

The game received mainly mixed to negative reviews. The Xbox 360 and Wii versions were the highest rated versions on Gamerankings, with scores of 37%^[12][13] while the PS3 version was slightly below them at 35%.^[14] Push Square claimed that the game was much more fun with another person, but was still "a harsh drop off in quality compared to otherHasbro Family Game Night titles" and gave the game a 3/10.^[15] Official Xbox Magazine UK gave it a 3/10, claiming that the games were poorly represented and saying: "This casts doubt on whether Hasbro understand what makes its non-digital games good. Whatever the reasons behindFGN4 - this is reprehensible".^[16]

While Hasbro would continue to work with Electronic Arts for mobile games, Hasbro would sign a new console deal withUbisoft in August 2013.^[17] In October 2015 the company released a compilation title entitledHasbro Family Fun Pack for thePlayStation 4 andXbox One. The title includes four games that had previously been released digitally:Trivial Pursuit LIVE,Monopoly Plus,Risk andScrabble (Boggle for Non-NA releases).^[18] It was followed up withHasbro Family Fun Pack: Conquest Edition for the same systems in November 2016.

Another compilation for theNintendo Switch was released in October 2018, entitledHasbro Game Night, which bundled the Switch download versions of Trivial Pursuit LIVE, Monopoly and Risk.
