Zen Studios is best known for its prowess in the pinball market, amassing its fame from titles such as Pinball FX, Zen Pinball and Marvel Pinball. This success has enabled Zen to expand its creative department and develop a wide range of games for varying platforms.
KickBeat, for example, is a music-based crossover action title for Vita that throws a brilliant twist into the tired rhythm genre. It combines the quick dexterity of classic rhythm games with a few of the industry’s favorite tropes and trends: fighting and ninjas.
The most noticeable fad that Zen Studios doesn’t use in KickBeat also happens to be the game’s best feature: It has absolutely no touchscreen or rear touchpad functions.
KickBeat is poised to launch in late fall or early winter this year.
