Based on the iconic ‘80s TV series, He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe: Dragon Pearl Of Destruction is a retro-inspired 2D brawler.

Inspired by the iconic ‘80s cartoon, He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe: Dragon Pearl Of Destruction allows players to take control of Eternia’s beloved heroes, including He-Man, Teela, Man-At-Arms, and more, to battle Skeletor and Evil-Lyn and save Eternia from plunging into darkness. 

Fight through over 12 action-packed levels using character-specific moves, abilities, and power-ups to stop Skeletor’s ancient ritual that threatens to take over Eternia. Battle Cat, He-Man’s fearless feline companion, also joins the fray, battling on the side of justice with his claws unsheathed.

With pixel-art animation, authentic 80s-style visuals, and designs by some of the franchise's most dedicated devotees, He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe: Dragon Pearl Of Destruction is the game fans have waited for.


Dragon Pearl Of Destruction is one of the exciting ways we’re bringing Mattel’s brands to life through digital games,” said Erika Winterholler, Head of Business Development, Digital Games at Mattel. “It’s a love letter to those who grew up with He-Man, combining nostalgic visuals with fast-paced, modern gameplay. Our goal is to honor the franchise’s legacy while introducing it to a new generation of players. The team at Limited Run Games shares that passion, and we hope the game connects with both lifelong fans and newcomers alike.”

Dragon Pearl Of Destruction is the Masters of the Universe arcade game I yearned for as a child,” said Josh Fairhurst, CEO and Executive Producer at Limited Run Games. “I am excited and honored to be playing a small part in making it a reality.”

He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe: Dragon Pearl Of Destruction is coming to Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC in 2026, with physical pre-orders and digital release also coming early 2026.
