Now here is something that caught me off guard. Limited Run Games has announced a new 2D retro beat ’em up He-Man game, called He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction. This comes after the highly anticipated Terminator 2D: NO FATE. So, let’s take a look at it.
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction is a two-player, retro-style 2D magic fighting game. It features colorful pixel art and big, detailed characters, made to honor Eternia’s favorite heroes.
The game will have over 12 sprawling and diverse levels of non-stop action. Players will have a host of moves, abilities, and power-ups.
There is currently no ETA on when this new brawler will come out. In theory, it should be released sometime in 2026. Or at least that’s my assumption.
I personally like everything I see in this trailer. This is exactly the He-Man game I’d love to play back in the ’90s. It took 20-30 years, but hey, we finally got it.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
