Disappointing Update for Switch Owners Regarding Power Rangers Game

Nintendo Switch enthusiasts eagerly awaiting Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind will need to hold off a bit longer. The release for the Switch has been postponed to December 19. Originally slated for December 10, this delay is relatively brief. Meanwhile, players on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox can look forward to diving into the action as scheduled on December 10.

For fans, 2024 hasn’t been bustling with Power Rangers news, making the anticipation around Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind even more electric. Announced during the Summer Games Fest, this game brings the nostalgia of a retro beat-em-up with some modern flair. The original Teenagers with Attitude are back, and players can expect classic side-scrolling combat, enhanced with innovative features such as 3D Megazord battles and thrilling rail shooter segments. The narrative intertwines with last year’s reunion special, Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers: Once and Always, where the villainous Robo Rita plots to alter history by aiding her past self to ultimately defeat the Rangers. With limited new content planned for this beloved series, the fan base is buzzing for the game’s release come December 10.

In a recent development, it’s confirmed that the Switch version faces a slight delay, now arriving on December 19, thanks to some unforeseen complications reported by the developers at Digital Eclipse.

Moreover, online multiplayer won’t be immediately available for the Xbox and Nintendo Switch versions due to unspecified technical glitches. This doesn’t hinder the two-player co-op on PlayStation and Steam versions or offline multiplayer across all platforms. Rita’s Rewind allows for local co-op play with up to five friends, featuring the core Power Rangers crew and even the unlockable Green Ranger.

Fans of the iconic franchise have been eagerly waiting for this release, which promises a nostalgic return to the roots of both the original series and the beloved beat-em-up games of the past. Some enthusiasts hope that if Rita’s Rewind performs well, it might open doors to games based on later Power Rangers seasons. While Switch players will face a small delay, all platforms will soon offer a chance to experience the morphinominal adventure.

In this latest installment, our heroes confront a robotic version of their longtime adversary. Robo Rita utilizes a temporal portal, attempting to rewrite history by teaming up with her younger self to eradicate the Power Rangers before they even begin. Will the combined might of these two Ritas finally achieve their nefarious goal, or will the Rangers rise to the occasion, overcoming this chronological conundrum? As players, you’ll be thrust back to the origins of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, witnessing history rewritten – for better or worse.
