Developer nWay and Lionsgate Games have announced that an all-new update to
Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid is now available on consoles, introducing several key elements and mechanics requested by players and promised by the publisher before the fighting extravaganza’s recent launch.
The long-overdue story mode is the biggest new
Grid addition, giving you a unique chance to play trough "
an epic storyline written and voice directed by writer/director Kyle Higgins (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Shattered Grid, Batman: Gates of Gotham). The mode also features original artwork by Eisner Award-winning illustrator Dan Mora (Go Go Power Rangers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Klaus). In this new mode, players experience a re-imagining of the critically acclaimed Shattered Grid event from Boom! Studios’ Power Rangers comic book series. When Lord Drakkon, an evil alternate version of Tommy Oliver, sets off a massive campaign across time and space to destroy all Power Rangers, they must band together and fight back, before all of existence falls to his armies."
That's not all, as the new content includes story and combat voiceovers performed by original
Power Rangers cast members, including Jason David Frank (Tommy Oliver), Austin St. John (Jason Lee Scott), David J. Fielding (Zordon), Kerrigan Mahan (Goldar) and Meghan “Strawburry17” Camarena (Kimberly).
Thanks to the brand-new update, three new characters have now joined the game's roster – Dragon Armor Trini, Udonna, and Cenozoic Blue Ranger. Additionally, players can duke it out in four never-before-seen in-game arenas: Corinth and Planet Earth: Cenozoic Era Non-Selectable Arenas (Story Mode only): Command Center (Malfunctioning) and finally Lord Drakkon’s Throne Room (Flashback).
