'Pocket Bravery' Is A Retro-Inspired Fighting Game Coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox and PC In 2023 - Screens & Trailer

Inspired by classic fighting games from the 90's such as Street Fighter, Fatal Fury and The King of Fighters, Pocket Bravery channels the Neo Geo Pocket aesthetic for a modern fighting game with a retro twist!

With original characters, vibrant colours and an impressive combat system, 'Pocket Bravery' is designed with high-level players in mind, while making it easily accessible for beginners to pick-up-and-play!

In the world of 'Pocket Bravery', there are a few who are able to throw energy through their hands, others reinforce their muscles, and certain specialists transfer their essence to objects and weapons.

Following our protagonist Nuno and several other characters investigating the criminal organisation Matilha, 'Pocket Bravery' explores a story of revenge through the eyes of multiple characters, with alternative paths available to the player.

With completely hand-drawn pixel art visuals and dynamic and responsive gameplay, 'Pocket Bravery' focuses on the characters’ animations and movement with the aim to get ultimate fluidity during matches.


Interested fans can check out a playable PC demo on Steam.

Key Features:

  • Choose Your Fighter - 12 diverse characters to choose from, all with unique abilities and playstyles!
  • The World's Stage - Pick your arena with 20 different world-wide areas to choose from such as New York, Beijing, Glasgow, Japan and more, each with fantastic pixel visuals and animated backgrounds!
  • Story Time - Follow the story of Nuno and others as they investigate the criminal organisation Matilha! 
  • Competitive and accessible control schemes included, based on your level of fighting game experience
  • Unique Gameplay systems
    • Elemental System - Through this system, it is possible to execute elemental attacks that have different characteristics from your characters natural elemental affinity and bring new offensive or defensive possibilities for the player.
    • Taunt System - During a match, provocations can bring big advantages and disadvantages! Depending on the characters' personality or relationship, different reactions can occur, so be careful! During the taunt animation, the character is still vulnerable, so make sure you're not opening yourself up to a devastating attack!
    • Breaker System - At the cost of half the elemental bar (or the full elemental bar if you are not guarding), utilising a breaker is the best defence against an opponent's pressure. When blocking or being hit, use this to turn the tables! 
  • Local and Online Multiplayer with 'Rollback Netcode' for ultra low latency online fighting!

Pocket Bravery is coming to Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) in 2023.
