Prince of Persia creator, Jordan Mechner, is working on a remake of his old beat-em-up game, Karateka. This week, the first screenshots of the game were made available and you can take a look at them below.

 

 

 

Karateka puts you in the shoes (sandals?) of three different martial-arts practitioners who set out to rescue a princess from an evil warlord. The game is in development for the PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U and iOS devices.

    We all know what we’re really waiting for here

    • Why do any asian-themed game made by american share all the same art style? It’s as if japanese people were big bulky indian warriors in their minds…

      Good graphics but very bad designs…

    I kinda feel like they should have kept the generic white guy look but oh well. It definitely looks good.

  • as long as that goddamn eagle is not in it!

    This game reminds me of Samurai Jack for some reason.

  • Ladius

    The pseudo-Mulan cartoon Asian style looks really bad here imho, not to mention it’s a complete departure from the original’s art direction.

     This could be the next sands of time but that might be too high.

    Looks pretty neat, but I wonder  who’s the protagonist in the screen with the big vest-wearing guy and the dude in black pauldrons… I’m kinda hoping for the latter.
