No es el primer juego de la franquicia. No obstante, el reciente anuncio de The Karate Kid: Street Rumble ha logrado despertar la curiosidad en muchos de nosotros. Y es que el juego en cuestión nos presenta un beat ‘em up de corte clásico en 2D, que ya cuenta con fecha de lanzamiento en Nintendo Switch.
The Karate Kid: Street Rumble dará cera a Nintendo Switch a finales de verano
La verdad es que la primera vez que vi un adelanto de la por aquel entonces producción de Youtube no las tuve todas conmigo. No obstante, Cobra Kai, Ralph Macchio, William Zabka y compañía han sabido revitalizar y actualizar a los tiempos que corren una franquicia tan querida como Karate Kid. Y si no que se lo digan al inminente estreno de la sexta temporada de Cobra Kai o a la nueva película en producción. Y eso lo saben muy bien en GameMill. Por ello nos traen The Karate Kid: Street Rumble. Un beat ‘em up en 2D (16 bits), que llegará a Nintendo Switch el 20 de septiembre de 2024. Aquí un pequeño adelanto con su tráiler de presentación:
The Karate Kid: Street Rumble nos llevará a revivir los acontecimientos vividos en la trilogía original de películas. Desde el enfrentamiento final entre Johnny Lawrence y Daniel LaRusso en el All Valley Tournament hasta emblemáticos momentos del Dojo de Cobra Kai, peleas en las calles de San Fernando o enfrentamientos en la mismísima Okinawa. 12 niveles inspirados en las películas, un llamativo apartado artístico pixel art, una banda sonora ochentera o un intuitivo sistema de combate prometen ser sus principales señas de identidad. Para finalizar, el cooperativo local para hasta 4 jugadores o la existencia de una futura edición en formato físico ponen la guinda a un pastel que luce bastante apetitoso.
