Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita\

The upcoming beat 'em up, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind, is packed with nods to the franchise's rich history, including last year's reunion special, Once and Always. The game's main antagonist? The fearsome Robo Rita! Announced at Summer Games Fest 2024, this retro-style brawler features five-player co-op, enemies from the first three seasons, and even 3D rail-shooter sections. Prepare for action on PC and consoles later this year.

Power Rangers fans have experienced a whirlwind of emotions recently. Following Once and Always and Power Rangers: Cosmic Fury, the franchise entered a period of uncertainty. Once and Always saw the original team reunite to thwart Robo Rita's attempt to alter history. The special was filled with nostalgic Easter eggs and emotional tributes, particularly a moving remembrance of Thuy Trang and Jason David Frank.

Robo Rita's return from Once and Always as the main villain in Rita's Rewind is no accident. Digital Eclipse's Dan Amrich explained to Time Express that Robo Rita's time-travel plot in Once and Always provided a perfect in-universe connection for the game's storyline.

Amrich also detailed how Digital Eclipse pitched the game to Hasbro, who were keen to expand their Power Rangers properties. Inspiration was drawn from classic 2D brawlers popular during the MMPR era, ensuring plenty of Easter eggs for longtime fans.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind is a loving tribute, mirroring older games' gameplay while incorporating newer lore through Robo Rita's return. While the launch is slated for later this year, fans can get a taste of the action now via a recent crossover with ARK: Survival Ascended.
