EyeToy: Play 3 is the third game in the EyeToy: Play series, for up to four players. The camera takes snapshots during the game for your player and is a requirement to play the game. Unlike previous EyeToy: Play games, Play 3 was not released in North America. Unlike the previous games, 4 players were able to play on screen at the same time as opposed to taking it in turns like the previous games.

Extras
Alongside the games, there was also the Playroom where the player could mess around with the motion capabilities of the camera including making special effect such as glitter or rainbows from their bodies, as well as annoying a beehive by tapping it to unleash a swarm of deadly bees that will follow you as you move and will only go back to the beehive if you restrict your movement.
There was also the Recog Cam option. Here, if you were to show a particular card (basically an image) in front of the camera while in this mode, it will activate something within the game. 3 of these cards were available on the manual supplied with the game. One of them was the logo of the then upcoming game, EyeToy Kinetic. Displaying that card in front of the camera would activate a video promoting the game. After the video, some information on the game would then show up where you could go Next to read more.
