Currently planned for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam, the sci-fi love letter to 80s and 90s action movies promises to blend dystopian cyberpunk lunar colony landscapes with muay thai, kung fu, and boxing bouts when it launches in late 2025.

Watch Moon Samurai‘s Kickstarter launch trailer below:
Moon Samurai is set in the year 2080. RAM City, a lunar city-state, is in decline. Military factions and a totalitarian government are fueling a war of independence with Earth. On the eve of all-out destruction, protagonist Buddy escapes imprisonment with the help of an artificial intelligence named DANAO_X. The duo join forces to rescue their city and the moon at large from complete annihilation. War begins in 24 hours. It’s time to let fists fly.
Armed with cyber-implants, martial arts skills, skull-crushing nunchaku, and, of course, an energy katana, become the destined Moon Samurai and parkour across vibrant pixel-art lunar cityscapes, artificial jungles, secret military laboratories, nightclubs, an out-of-control spaceship, and other meticulously crafted locations.
Crack a blue-haired street punk’s head with a pool cue or smash a chair into a bouncer with environmental object interactions. Take down challenging but fair bosses like the electrifying Shinwa or jetpacking Akoto. Pass tests of strength, wit, courage, honor, and compassion to unlock one of several distinct endings driven by player choice. Fueled by a head-bobbing synthwave soundtrack, Moon Samurai takes inspiration from legendary action-adventure games like Streets of Rage, Prince Of Persia, and Flashback.
Moon Samurai’s Kickstarter campaign is running now. Support the game today to play it when it launches on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam in late 2025. For more information, please visit the game’s Steam page.
