Konami showed off a bit more Rocket Knight action during its recent gamers night. The retro reboot features the jet-pack powered opossum Sparkster taking to the skies and ricocheting off walls as he battles an evil wolf army. (Don't try ricocheting off walls in a jet pack. Sparkster is a trained professional.)
Rocket Knight was pretty fun back in the day, and we're definitely interested to see how well its core gameplay holds up 15 years later. Konami definitely seems to be taking a cue from Capcom when it comes to digging back into its vault and reviving older titles, with Rush'N Attack getting a similar makeover. Now where's our Zombies Ate My Neighbors update?
