On May 21st, King of Tokyo, a video game inspired by Richard Garfield’s board game, will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC (via Steam). This announcement comes from publisher Microids and developer Breakfirst Games.
The game will be released as a physical copy for both PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, and a special limited edition will also be available. This limited edition includes the game itself, a collectible cardboard figure, a Blockbuster Bro monster board, and eight Evolution Cards to use with the board game.
Here is an overview of the game, via Microids:
About
Become a giant monster and wreak havoc in this quick-playing dice game! Roll the dice to create powerful combinations and dominate Tokyo. You can heal, attack, buy upgrades, or score points to claim victory.
Time your moves carefully to become King of Tokyo and then strike all your opponents at once.
The game ends when someone reaches 20 Victory Points, but it also ends when only one player remains! Both the first to reach the point goal and the last player standing win.
Key Features
- Build Your Strategy – Roll the dice and choose wisely which ones to keep. Whether you decide to keep your dice or reroll, each decision is crucial to your winning strategy. Turn into a glass canon with powerful cards to reduce your opponents’ hit points to 0, play it safe and quickly collect Victory Points, or build up health to become a tank: the choice is yours.
- Choose Your Kaiju – Unleash the kaiju within you and rule over Tokyo! The mighty Gigazaur, the cute Cyber Kitty or maybe the otherworldly Alienoid, choose the invader that suits you best.
- Battle Over Tokyo Against AI or Against Your Friends – Test your strategies by competing against the AI in the solo mode, and find the strategy that matches you. Challenge up to five of your friends in the couch multiplayer mode to prove who the mightiest kaiju is!
- A Unique Recreation – (Re)discover King of Tokyo in a dynamic recreation of the critically acclaimed board game. Immerse yourself in the ukiyo-e inspired art style (Japanese woodblock prints and painting style).
