Sega’s classic beat-em-up returns, but that new art style is going to divide a lot of folks (me included)

I did not see this coming. Then again, if I had, I’m not sure it would have looked like this:

On the plus side, it’s being made by the folks behind that excellent Wonderboy 3 remake a few years back, so they do clearly have an appreciation for the classics.

Still, that cel-shaded look for a game that was classically all about the pixels? Brave move.

I guess they could always pull out the Wonderboy trick of switching between pixel and cel art, although that’s going to be tougher for a game with all-new animation.
