It’s Quiz Time: Guinness World Records Edition has received its 2027 update today, 11 November, refreshing the party game’s records and questions alongside the latest edition of the book. Snap Finger Click has released the update for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, with Nintendo Switch following at a later date.
The new material includes records such as the narrowest driveable car and the largest collection of My Little Pony memorabilia. It is a fairly broad interpretation of general knowledge, but that is part of the appeal. Somewhere out there, somebody is about to discover that a deeply niche interest finally makes them useful at quiz night.
Salli returns as host, guiding the group through the questions and remembering players’ performances. There are ten round types, ranging from familiar multiple-choice questions to sorting challenges, so being good at recalling a strange fact is only part of the job.
Up to eight people can play locally using a web-based controller on a smartphone, tablet or laptop. There is no companion app to download, which removes at least one of the traditional obstacles between suggesting a party game and actually getting everyone into it. Online play is supported too, while Twitch mode lets streamers take on their communities.
The Guinness World Records partnership provides official questions alongside photos and video material from the organisation’s archives. You can also create a playlist of preferred round types, which should help if your group has particularly strong opinions about what constitutes a proper quiz.
The update is available now on the platforms listed above, but there is no confirmed release date for the Switch version yet. Switch owners should therefore avoid assuming that today’s announcement means their copy has already changed.
For more on how the game works, see Snap Finger Click’s official overview or the Steam listing. There is plenty of time before Christmas to decide which friend is most likely to become unbearable after correctly identifying a record-breaking vegetable.
