Amber Studio today confirmed that Mexican Ninja, the fast and gloriously over-the-top 2.5D roguelike beat ’em up, launches on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on August 20. Slice your way through the streets of Nuevo Tokyo and lead the uprising against the Narkuzas.
Welcome to Nuevo Tokyo, a chaotic feudal regime forged when Mexico’s Narcos and Japan’s Yakuza merged into a new ruling class: the Narkuzas. They are now the law, and the law sucks culo. On the outskirts of the city a group of rebels is plotting against the five heads of the Narkuza clan. Enter the Mexican Ninja.
Slice through the stylized streets in adrenaline-pumping combat where precise movement, positioning and perfectly timed attacks decide every duel. The fighting is easy to learn yet rewards the kind of mastery only a true Mexican Ninja can reach.
Every playthrough is different, with randomized levels, over-the-top duels and pimped-out weapons. Each run unlocks new ninja skills as you train with El Mero Mero Sensei, gain the favor of Mexican-Japanese spirits and wield their powers. Unleash Mexican Jutsus, experiment with builds and combos and swagger it up with hidden apparel. It is not enough to fight the Narkuza, you need to look good doing it to inspire an uprising. Viva la revolución.
“This is the moment we have been building toward. Every parry, every jutsu, every run is about that feeling of getting knocked down and standing back up with more swagger than before. Mexican Ninja has always been a vibe, a spirit, a way of being and now players everywhere can find their inner donkey,”
