Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind Reviews
I left Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind with mixed feelings. I played it both solo and in multiplayer, and although I had fun with my friends in a casual way, if I analyze it more critically when playing alone, its flaws start to become evident. Even though it’s beautiful and tries to excite every minute with its explosive presentation, we still don’t have the definitive Power Rangers beat ‘em up.

Unimaginative beat 'em up with a high price tag that completly ignores much better games in the same genre.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind is a welcome blast from the past in concept, but struggles to find its own identity underneath the weight of the concepts within.
Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind may show its budget across the whole package, but it is certainly money well spent. There is a care and passion behind every pixel that is present across both the brawling stages and the arcade-like experiences of piloting the Zords. There is a joyous energy to this game that is infectious, and while it certainly has its own share of issues, I am eager to see what this team can do with a sequel that is refreshingly hinted at.
The Power Rangers are back to save the day and it’s a puddy good time!
While I'm no Power Rangers fan, aficionados of the series deserve better than this stock churned-out co-op beat-em-up that is less "Mighty" and more "Adequate". If you need a 90s beat-em-up with today's modern conveniences, you're better off with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge.
Is it fair to say that the best aspect about Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind is its fanservicey appeal? It’s nostalgic, it made me feel like a kid in the 90s once again, but there’s more to it than just a gratuitous shot of retro-tinged dopamine. It’s still a fantastic beat ’em up with great production values and fluid controls, as well as vehicular combat sections which truly make it stand out. It’s the right balance between being pure nostalgic fun and a high-quality party brawler.
Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind is the perfect beat ‘em up to play with a few friends, as you jam along to the series’ iconic theme song and relive that Saturday morning cartoon fun.

It easily stands alongside some of the more standout titles that have emerged in the genre as of late, and everyone involved shows their reverence for MMPR in every frame. Anyone worried about the quality of this game can rest easy, as this is something I can happily point to as a great example of a good beat-em-up. I had a morphenomenal time with Rita’s Rewind, and I’m sure anyone fires this up will feel the same way. This game is far from a headache, so go-go give this one a shot.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind is an honest and simple beat 'em up that follows the formula of classic arcade games brought to modern gaming.

It’s a faithful and nostalgia-filled adventure full of colorful visual design, amazing voice acting, and challenging arcade action. While I do feel it’s not as well-tuned for single-player experiences, this is a wonderful game to play with friends. If you’re a longtime fan of the iconic characters, you’ll find something to adore in this love letter from Digital Eclipse.
The popularity of “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” was at a fever pitch in the early 90s. Playing through this game evoked so much nostalgia and I really enjoyed the twists on the genre. The music is a wonderful compliment here that pulls in familiar themes, but has a whole lot of new to be heard. There’s a whole lot of sequel potential here, and I hope they come to fruition, because I’m eager for more of this. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind is the game Power Rangers fans have been waiting for.
Overall, I'd say Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind is worth your time if you're a fan of the genre and especially if you're a Power Rangers fan. The presentation is excellent, from the character select screen to the in-game speech scenes, everything feels like the Power Rangers TV show. I particularly loved the little nods Digital Eclipse included to other classics in the genre
The game is beautiful and extremely fun, the different mechanics that alternate between the phases make the game even more attractive and less repetitive, a problem that happens in a good part of the games of the genre, the exciting music, the enemies, characters and scenarios extremely well constructed, and the fun fights in the Megazord cockpits, all of this is an invitation for hours and hours of fun.
