If you thought Kinectimals couldn’t get any cuter, then you were sorely, sorely mistaken. Microsoft has just announced a new Kinectimals add-on that tosses soft and cuddly bear cubs into the mix, and this is an expansion that’s sure to elicit plenty of heartwarming “dawww,” moments from players.

I mean, look at that thing! Do you see how cute it is? He’s even riding the Warthog from Halo, which adds to both the cute and badass factors of the photo, somehow. There’s a whole gallery of these playful balls of fluff below, but I would advise against viewing them while you’re at work, lest your coworkers discover you giggling like a child as you look at pictures of adorable bears (alas, it is too late for me in that respect).

So, what’s this new Kinectimals game called anyway? Kinectmals Now With Bears! Yep, that’s the title, and it adds a total of five bears to the game, as well as new island for you to explore and a new guide to tell you what’s what.

Kinectimals Now With Bears! will be released as both a downloadable add-on called “Bear Island,” and as a retail bundle pack with the original – downloading it will run you $14.99 while picking up the bundle pack will set you back $49.99. Sure, the price might be a little steep, but thumbing through the gallery that’s below, I’d say it’s worth it. Besides, what else are you going to do with your Kinect? Interact with advertisements?

There’s no exact release date for Kinectimals Now With Bears! yet, but Microsoft says it’ll be out sometime in this fall. We’ll have that release date for you once Microsoft announces it, but in the meantime, feel free to head down to the comments section and gush about the screenshots.
