The PS2-era platformer is reborn with Akimbot and its mind-boggling array of colorful weapons

Akimbot.

If you yearn for the days of colorful, mascot-era platformers but don't know where you left that spare PS2 memory card, action-adventure game Akimbot is just the thing to pluck at your nostalgia.

In Akimbot, you take on the role as partners in crime, Exe and Shipset. Evoking the chaotic double-acts of icons like Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank, these two outlaw robots are making their way across the galaxy to thwart the plans of mad scientist Evilware. If that sounds like a pretty big challenge already, you've only heard the start of it - the pair will also have to contend with the intergalactic war that Evilware's efforts propel them into.
