Kao the Kangaroo is back in May 2022 and has a brand-new trailer to show off the combat and the various enemies the kangaroo will battle within his latest outing. Kao’s first game was back in 2000 for Dreamcast, but he’s back and better than ever, with a new game that will be playable on a wide variety of consoles. The video may be short, but it does a lot to show what this kangaroo can do.
The latest video for Kao the Kangaroo shows a variety of enemies that the protagonist will battle with as he punches out animals like monkeys and alpacas. Kao’s boxing gloves glow with several elemental types in the video, and several of his attacks briefly have a Matrix-style time slow right before he batters the enemy.
He also has punches that create shockwaves around him that will undoubtedly be useful. In his upcoming game, many enemies Kao battles are monkeys, some with sledgehammers, while others have wings, wrenches, and bombs. There are even monkeys on giant logs that roll at him, forcing the kangaroo towards the camera.
The action looks fast and frenetic, with various foes to punch out. Kao’s punches look sharp and quick, and it seems like he can change the element on his gloves as the game goes on. Throughout the video, they vary from what looks like a fire, ice, and lightning elemental attack.
The areas Kao the Kangaroo explores look beautiful too. It’s family-friendly but still action-packed and engaging. Between 2000 and 2005, Kao had four games released across Windows, Dreamcast, Game Boy Advance, Xbox, PlayStation 2, and GameCube.
The original Kao the Kangaroo games sold more than 700,000 units across four games, but 20 years later, he’s back for a brand-new adventure.
