Beat ‘Em Up 99Vidas Coming To PS4, PS3 and PS Vita

Brazilian developer QUByte Interactive in partnership with podcast 99Vidas has passed Sony QA and will release the beat ’em up 99Vidas – The Game on PlayStation Store for PS4, PS3 and PS Vita.

The Game captures the excitement of beat ’em ups like Final Fight, Double Dragon, Battletoads, Golden Axe and Streets of Rage featuring 16-bit retro graphics to bring back the nostalgia of those great classics from the 80’s and 90’s.

Unlike more traditional Beat’Em Ups, the game features two attack buttons – Punch (fast but weak) and Kick (slow but strong), which players can alternate to perform different combos.

Character moves, including combos, can be upgraded by spending Experience Points acquired during gameplay, expanding damage inflicted, adding elemental damage, modifying the each character, both visually and gameplay-wise.

Key Features

11 Playable characters
Up to 4 players in Co-op (both local and online)
Story Mode with 6 levels
2 Bonus Levels
6 Challenging Boss Fights
Versus Mode
Multiple Upgradable skills
Multiple Weapons and Special Attacks

Check out the Trailer:

“99Vidas” is a brawler set in a contemporary world, but that pays tribute to both the classic and the new in the gaming industry. Brought to you in 16-bit pixelated glory, chock-full of references to not only gaming but also 80’s and 90’s pop culture. “99Vidas” takes full advantage modern era gameplay mechanics, making it the best of both worlds.
