Back in 2012, I blogged about the original Hotel Transylvania here and here. The sequel is out now, and it doesn't look like the yeti has a bigger role.
However, I discovered that the Hotel Transylvania Social Game (2014) for facebook has numerous yetis of various shapes and sizes, including yeticorns.
Here's a screenshot:
And if you zoom in, you can see the blurry image of the yeticorn:

Yeti Arcade: Pororo the Little Penguin
Hi, I am Jonny, your fan.
Congratulations for your blog: it’s fantastic.
I found a yeti in “Pororo Penguin Run”, a mobile game based on a tv series
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pororo_the_Little_Penguin).
I have attached a screenshot that I made when I saw the yeti smiling face with smiling eyes.
Hope you like it.
Feel free to share this on your blog.
Bye.
Thanks, Jonny!

Yeti Arcade: Gumby vs. the Astrobots

One of the only bosses in Gumby vs. the Astrobots (2006) for the Game Boy Advance was a ram-horned yeti.
Yeti says: "AAAAARRRRRRRRGH!" and "COME BACK DRAGON"...
..hmm, not exactly the most eloquent yeti's ever been.
Note to self: please DON'T add this to the "Everything Yeti Has Ever Said" page.

Yeti Arcade: Lord of the Rings Online
Wait... there are yeti in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings? Since when?
Well, apparently since the creators of Lord of the Rings Online (2007) put 'em in their game. Well, they call them "abominable snow-beasts" but you and I know what that means.

Apparently they inhabit the Misty Mountains. I thought I knew the Misty Mountains pretty well. They contained the Orc tunnels where Bilbo found the One Ring, the Mines of Moria where Gandalf fought the Balrog, and they were next to the foothills where dwelled Elrond in the Elven outpost of Rivendell. Who knew there were yeti there all along? You know, Bilbo and Frodo could have encountered yetis on their adventures!

I kid, I kid. Of course, the game's creators felt like they should expand on Middle Earth a little bit. You kind of have to when you got a MMORPG. And throwing in an abominable snow-beast is a good decision. Always.
