Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind Revives Retro Gaming with Modern Twists

The new beat 'em up blends nostalgic fan service and creative gameplay innovations, offering a fresh take on a classic genre.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind is a retro-style beat 'em up developed by Digital Eclipse, launching on December 10 for most platforms and December 19 for Nintendo Switch.
The game features a time-travel story where Robo Rita teams up with her younger self to battle the Power Rangers in a nostalgic nod to the original series.
Core gameplay includes classic beat 'em up mechanics with added variety, such as rail shooter Zord stages, Megazord first-person battles, and unlockable arcade mini-games.
While praised for its pixel art, energetic soundtrack, and creative level design, some players noted issues with inconsistent input responsiveness and repetitive character voice lines.
Despite its short campaign length, the game offers replayability through collectibles, time-based ranking challenges, and a clear passion for the Power Rangers franchise.
