'Mexican Ninja' Is A 2.5D Beat-'Em-Up Roguelike Coming To PC In 2026, Accepting Alpha Demo Sign-Ups - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on July 14, 2025 @ 5:39 p.m. PDT

Mexican Ninja is a frantic fast-paced 2.5D beat 'em up roguelike full of crass, brass and incredibly badass.

Get ready to slice your way through the streets of Nuevo Tokyo in this retro 2.5D arcade throwback.

Show me your skills, pinche ninja!

Welcome to Nuevo-Tokyo, a chaotic feudal regime forged when Mexico’s Narcos and Japan’s Yakuza merged to form a new ruling class: The Narkuzas. They are now the law, and the law sucks culo. Now, in the outskirts of Nuevo-Tokyo, a group of rebels is plotting against the five heads of the Narkuza clan. Enter the Mexican Ninja…

Slice your way through the stylized streets of Nuevo Tokyo in adrenaline-pumping combat. Precise movement, positioning, and perfectly timed attacks are all crucial to achieve victory. Mexican Ninja offers satisfying, pick-up-and-play brawling that’s easy to learn, yet rewards mastery that only a true Mexican Ninja can achieve.

Every playthrough is different, with randomized levels, trash-talking duels, and pimped-out weapons. Each run will have you unlocking new ninja skills by training with el Mero Mero Sensei. Gain the favor of Mexican-Japanese spirits, and make use of their powers. Utilize extremely ninja Mexican Jutsus as you experiment with different builds and combos. Just be sure to do it in style, swagging it up with hidden apparel. It’s not enough to fight the Narkuza, you need to look good doing it if you’re to inspire an uprising. Viva la revolución!

There’s an inner cabrón in all of us. Be THE Mexican Ninja and show off your unmatched way of the blade!


We're looking for willing participants to help free the streets of Nuevo Tokyo! If you're keen on trying Mexican Ninja early and helping us make it the best it can be - join us through this form!

“I couldn’t be prouder of what the whole Amber team has helped us build and bring to life through this game. In my culture, the idea of a hero rising up has always been needed. Indeed it still is! And Mexican Ninja has always been about the longing for that idea,” said Mexican Ninja franchise writer and director Carlos Rincones. “Having profound admiration for Japanese culture, its history, and its roots, it naturally seemed like the perfect one to blend and contrast with my own. I hope players can join the fun, explore the world, and embrace all the quirks of this concept. Here’s hoping they persevere through getting their asses kicked again and again—and through this dynamic, understand that Mexican Ninja is more than a game; it’s a vibe, a spirit, a way of being. I wish you a good journey in finding your inner donkey!”

A playable Mexican Ninja demo will be available later this Fall.

Mexican Ninja is coming to PC (Steam) in 2026.
