It's hard to believe that it's been more than two and a half decades since the Battletoads last graced the gaming world. It's over-the-top intergalactic arcade action done as only the Battletoads can. Players will take on the Topian forces solo or team up with a couple of friends in drop-in/drop-out couch co-op play for up to three players. The game combines the old-school Battletoads attitude with new, hand-drawn animation. The 'frenemies' come together to make a stand against an even bigger threat to the universe and maybe recapture the celebrity status of their glory days in the process.

After being forced to take on everyday jobs and eke out a mundane life, the former heroes concoct a plan to track down their old nemesis, the Dark Queen. Returned to the real world, the 'Toads quickly realize that they're no longer the iconic action stars they used to be. That is, until a bit of construction finds that the trio have spent their time unknowingly buried in a bunker and living fantasy lives filled with fame and fortune in a virtual simulation. The BATTLETOADS are back! It's been 26 years since the universe last heard from Zitz, Pimple, and Rash.
