'Mexican Ninja,' a 2.5D belt scroller action game that blends Mexican and Japanese cyberpunk aesthetics, has been unveiled.

Currently in development for a global release in 2026, 'Mexican Ninja' is set in 'Nuevo Tokyo,' a city ruled by the 'Narkuzas'—a ruthless syndicate formed by the merger of Mexican cartels and the Japanese Yakuza. Players take on the role of the Mexican Ninja, tasked with reclaiming the city by defeating the five heads of the Narkuza families and their minions.

As a fast-paced 2.5D belt scroller, the combat system in 'Mexican Ninja' is built around universal parrying and combo chains, requiring skill in timing and positioning rather than simple button-mashing. It also supports crowd control and area-of-effect attacks using supernatural 'Mexican Jutsus.'

The game also incorporates Roguelike elements. Randomized battles and events allow players to experiment with different builds in each run, while a meta-progression system provides permanent upgrades to gradually strengthen the character.

'Mexican Ninja' is scheduled for official release in 2026 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam). The Steam page is now live, where players can find detailed information about the game.
