Bandai Namco Entertainment America Inc today announced its partnership with Brazil based indie developer Behold Studios, to publish Chroma Squad, a tactical RPG inspired by Saban’s Power Rangers.
The Power Rangers franchise is one of the longest running and most watched kids’ action series in television history, so it makes the perfect muse.
Chroma Squad will be available for the PS4, Xbox One, PlayStation Vita, iOS and Android. It is scheduled to launch in the Americas in early 2017.
Based in Brasilia, Braizil, Behold Studios’ Chroma Squad is a single-player Tactical RPG game where players take control of a team of five stunt actors who decide to quit their day jobs to create their own TV show inspired by Power Rangers.
Players will cast actors, purchase and upgrade equipment, craft weapons, and build giant mechs to battle evil in quest of higher TV viewer ratings.
Chroma Squad has classic sprite-based graphics and presents its story in classic Tokusatsu style with a splash of humor that’s been made famous in classic live-action Japanese sci-fi and TV shows.
