10 Obvious Video Game Remasters The Industry Is Ignoring
7. Kung Fu Chaos
The best party game ever invented. Fight me.
With its quirky art style and hilarious fighting mechanics, Kung Fu Chaos would provide great competition for fighting games in what has become a fairly predictable marketplace.
You either have the eccentric gore-fest that is Mortal Kombat 11, the Nintendo slumber party in Super Smash Bros, or the Dragon Ball titles that have been released with monotonous regularity for well over a decade now. There is very little variety in modern-day fighting titles.
Enter: Kung Fu Chaos.
Having just passed its 17th birthday, Kung Fu Chaos is the first title ever published by Just Add Monsters; now known as Ninja Theory and boast the fantastic Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice in their release roster.
The plot centres around the player controlling these kung fu fighters whilst making an action movie, with the director acting as the final boss of the game. Capable of being played as a single-player fighting experience or as a multiplayer all-out brawl, there is nothing left to be desired with this title.
The dynamic level design keeps fighting interesting, and despite its fairly small roster (which can be easily updated), the characters are interestingly written, satirical takes on many stereotypes of the movie and video game industries.
This mix of underlying maturity with baffling stupidity is sprinkled with hours of fun.
