“We've been honored to present our vision of Bravoman to fans for the past year as a ShiftyLook webcomic, and been extremely humbled by the outstanding reception to the title,” said Rob Pereyda, NAMCO BANDAI Games' ShiftyLook Producer and Editor-in-Chief. “It's only fitting that now, as he turns 25 years old, our favorite stretchy hero gets his own game.”
BRAVOMAN®: SUPER-UNEQUALED HERO OF EXCELLENCE puts players in control of Bravoman, a hero who was once a normal “salary man,” now given mystic powers by the alien Alpha Man from the planet Alpha in the form of stretchy limbs and a submarine attack mode. Follow Bravoman's misadventures as he tries to stop the evil Doctor Bomb and Benjamin from unleashing 99 varieties of Benjamin-cloned binjas on Neo Kyoto, using stretchy punches, jumps and even aquatic attacks to defeat your enemies. Assemble parts from defeated binjas to collect them all, and combine rare parts to unlock characters like Alpha Man, Waya Hime, Anti-Bravo and more.
