Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind Levels Up With New Gameplay Features and Expanded Online Multiplayer
Digital Eclipse Announces Upgradeable Rangers, Gameplay “Morphers”, and Expanded Co-Op in Free Updates for PC and Consoles
Fans of the recently released beat-em-up Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind are in for a special treat. Developer Digital Eclipse, under license from Hasbro, is adding a ton of new gameplay features and improvements to make your Mighty Morphin adventure even more awesome, including upgradeable Rangers, “morphers” that significantly alter players’ experience, and special moves in an update coming this week, as well as a significant expansion to online multiplayer to arrive in Spring.
First up, this week, new gameplay features ensure that no two playthroughs of Rita’s Rewind will ever be the same. These updates will first be available on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. Nintendo Switch players will receive the update shortly afterwards.
- Upgradeable Rangers: Digital Eclipse is implementing a new skill point system that lets you adjust your preferred Ranger’s strength, defense, and speed. This gives each character variety while also allowing every fan to make their favorite Rangers exactly play how they want them to play.
- Morphers: These special modifiers change up things like gravity, speed, and more. Plus, if you want to play Rita’s Rewind as it was at launch (with all Rangers being equally capable), that option is available, too. Mix and match for some seriously silly fun in your battles.
- Power Blast: Finding yourself swamped with Robo Rita’s many minions? Use Power Blast to knock them back in exchange for a chunk of your health bar. No reward without risk, but it’ll certainly help turn the tide of chaotic battles.
- Ground Recovery: With a properly timed button press, a hero who has been knocked back by an enemy attack can recover quickly and start attacking again, as opposed to landing on the ground and then needing to get up. This should keep the pace of those brawls at maximum speed!
Next up, in a patch coming this spring, Digital Eclipse is significantly expanding online multiplayer functionality. Previously, Rita’s Rewind supported three players on two separate consoles for a total of six online players. In this new update, six players will each be able to play on six separate machines using a peer-to-peer connection.
Digital Eclipse and publisher Atari also recently announced a standard and collectors physical edition of Rita’s Rewind on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5, and are glad to confirm that all these gameplay features and improvements will be included. Those physical editions release on May 30, 2025 and you can pre-order here.
Developed by Digital Eclipse, the team behind Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection, Atari 50th Anniversary Celebration, and much more, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind was digitally released in early December 2024. The game received positive reception from critics and community members alike, giving praise for its engaging gameplay, vibrant visuals, and faithful representation of the Power Rangers legacy.
