The popular manga/anime franchise One-Punch Man is about to get a hard-hitting video game adaptation, with a new trailer providing an extensive look -- including how a fair fight against its intentionally overpowered protagonist is even possible.
The latest trailer for One-Punch Man: A Hero Nobody knows confirms the fighting game will be released this February, while showcasing a new game mode that has fighters freeze in awe whenever the world's top-ranked hero King appears to observe a battle. As the blistering brawls between fan-favorite characters in the anime series are shown, the end of the trailer reveals how Saitama's opponents stand a chance against the unassuming superhero: It's all a dream.
Dubbed "Dream Version Saitama," the pajama-clad incarnation of the hero can be knocked around by his opponents in direct contrast to the actual hero, who is completely unfazed by enemy attacks.
In addition to the new fighters and game mode, the trailer also reveals Metal Knight, Melzargard and Stinger all in explosive action, capturing the fast-paced combat and robust sense of humor that has endeared the anime series to millions of fans all over the world.
One-Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows is developed by Spike Chunsoft Co. LTD. and will be available on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4. It is scheduled to go on sale Feb. 28 from Bandai Namco.
