About

Tell me about 9 Monkeys of Shaolin!

9 Monkeys of Shaolin is a new multi-platform old-school beat ‘em up game where you, as a mere Chinese fisherman Wei Cheng, have to avenge the death of your friends and family slaughtered in a pirate raid at your peaceful village. Wei is quite a tough nut to crack as he knows the basics of ancient martial arts only mastered by legendary Shaolin monks.

Hmm, as a kid my favourite beat ‘em up was TMNT!

Excellent! 9 Monkeys of Shaolin is definitely for you!

We were trying to rebirth true iconic brawler genre in vein of old-school video games. If, as a kid you had hours of fun playing SNES or SEGA beat 'em up videogames crushing foes left and right then we should be friends and go through 9 Monkeys of Shaolin in сo-op play ;)

Sounds good! So there will be a co-op play. Tell me more!

This game mode is designed for two players. You can invite your friend online or like in old times play on the sofa and one screen in local co-op eating hot pizza together.

What about my battle staff? What abilities will I have?

You will learn to fight in three unique fighting styles - on earth, in the air and using mysterious magic seals (behold the historical accuracy!). Along with extensive character development system 9 Monkeys of Shaolin provides a great deal of ways to victory as you discover various unlockable perks, items and fighting styles.

On what platforms are you planning to release? And when?

9 Monkeys of Shaolin is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and to Windows, Mac, and Linux via Steam. October 16th, 2020.

Thanks to our publishers you could also buy a physical boxed version of the game, just check with your local retailers.

Will 9 Monkeys of Shaolin be localized to my language?

The game has English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, Russian and Japanese subtitles, and it has English and Russian voiceover.
