Players will be able to friend Kylie and Kendall within the game, and work towards their career goals together.

Both Jenner girls have risen to fame on their own after getting their start as young kids on the family's wildly popular show "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" and its subsequent spinoffs featuring two or more of the Kardashian sisters.
The game is said to be released in late 2015.
