Kao the Kangaroo is back with a brand new 3D platforming adventure, ready to pick up his boxing gloves and K.O. his way through this epic journey.

Since June 1st, 2020, all the Kao fans are wondering what is going on. There were hundreds of speculations: Is there a Kao sequel in production? Or maybe a trilogy remaster?

Yes! We are working on the entirely new Kao the Kangaroo game. 

We will keep you posted and soon you will be able to see a first glance of the game - so stay tuned!

For everyone who would like to become familiar with our favorite marsupial, from today (9th of June) until Sunday (14th of June) you can download our classic game - Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2 on Steam for FREE!

The first game - Kao the Kangaroo celebrates its 20th anniversary! This colorful 3D platformer gave a lot of joyful childhood memories to many people around the world. The sequel Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2 was in Top 10 for 12 months in Polish retail stores. The game series sold in over 700 000 retail units worldwide up to date.

The whole series includes:

  • Kao the Kangaroo (2000) - Dreamcast, PC (Retail - Worldwide)

In Early 2019 the community started an initiative marked by the hashtag #BringKaoBack to support and bring their favorite character back to a modern platform. 

As an answer to these requests, we have published a remastered Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2 on Steam. On June 1st, 2019 - as a gift for our community we have launched the game on Steam for free. Within 24 hours Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2 has been downloaded by over 750 000 players! 

#Kao4Australia - January 2020 - as soon as we found out about the horrific bushfires in Australia we have decided to support the worldwide relief - after all we are talking about Kao’s motherland. We started the 10 days fundraiser - all the Kao The Kangaroo: Round 2 Steam profits were donated to the WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service Inc.)
