Just weeks after lifting the lid of his return, Tate Multimedia has today launched a demo of Kao the Kangaroo. The brand new demo will include an exclusive look at one level, Dark Forest. Offering up to 40 minutes of gameplay, depending on your playing style, its a first chance for fans to experience Kao’s return, more than two decades after his debut on the SEGA Dreamcast.
At launch, Kao (pronounced K-O) will find himself embarking on his biggest adventure yet. He must find his missing sister, and solve the mystery of what happened to his long-lost father. Join Kao as he picks up his magical boxing gloves and travels the world. Players will confront famous fighting masters who are under the influence of a dark power, all while exploring a colourful and vibrant world.
“We cannot wait to see players take on the Kao the Kangaroo demo,”
“The reaction we saw after the last trailer went out has blown us away, and so now seems like the perfect time to let people in on the action ahead of the game’s release later this summer.”
Kaja Borowko, Head of Studio
The original Kao the Kangaroo series collectively sold more than 700,000 units worldwide. Four games in total launched across PC, PlayStation 2, PSP, GameCube, Xbox, Game Boy Advance, and the aforementioned SEGA Dreamcast.
In this new adventure, Kao will use his boxing gloves to punch a path through his adversaries. These boxing gloves are imbued with new magical powers, allowing for unique moves as he jabs his way through obstacles. Players can get a taste of this with the new Kao the Kangaroo demo, available to download now.
Kao the Kangaroo will launch digitally and physically on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Steam this summer. Are you looking forward to punching your way to victory? Let us know in the comments below!
