My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games is a 2015 Canadian–American animated musical fantasy film sequel to 2014's My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Rainbow Rocks, written by Josh Haber and directed by Ishi Rudell. It was produced by DHX Media's 2D animation studio in Vancouver, Canada for Hasbro Studios in the United States, as part of Hasbro's Equestria Girls toy line and media franchise, itself a spin-off of the 2010 relaunch of My Little Pony. The film received a television network premiere on Discovery Family, a joint venture between Discovery Communications and Hasbro, on September 26, 2015, with a home media release on October 13 that year; it also had a limited theatrical run in the United Kingdom and Australia beginning in late October 2015.
Like the first two Equestria Girls films, Friendship Games re-envisions the main characters of parent franchise, normally ponies, as teenage human characters in a high school setting. The film's story centers around a sports competition between the students of Canterlot High School and their rivals at Crystal Prep Academy, one of whom is the alternative world's counterpart of Twilight Sparkle, who has been investigating magical activity around Canterlot High.
A fourth Equestria Girls film, subtitled Legend of Everfree, was released on Netflix on October 1, 2016.
