Rare's intention was to remake classic Battletoads gameplay without the limitations of 1980s hardware. Prior to the game's announcement at E3 2018, the Battletoads series had been dormant for decades and was last displayed in the 2015 retrospective compilation Rare Replay. Dlala Studios previously worked on Overruled, a platform brawler.
The reboot was developed by Dlala Studios with the assistance and supervision of series creator Rare. But when they confront the queen, they end up teaming up with her to take down an evil alien race called the Topians, who have not only stolen the queen's powers but also were the ones who trapped the toads in the bunker. In a bid to reclaim their glory, they set out to once again defeat their old longtime nemesis, the Dark Queen. Trapped in a fantasy simulator bunker for 26 years, the Battletoads awaken to discover they are no longer intergalactic heroes and have fallen into modern-day obscurity. The rebooted sequence retains its nostalgic difficulty, with its game over screen providing the player with messages of encouragement, but it also features a range of selectable difficulty settings. The game has an obstacle course reminiscent of the original game's notoriously difficult Turbo Tunnel, but instead of the original's side view, the one in the reboot has the camera behind the bikes. The game's graphical style is hand-drawn and has more of a cartoon-styled aesthetic than prior series games. Up to three players can play cooperatively as the Battletoads Rash, Pimple and Zitz, each with distinct playstyles. Like the original Battletoads, the game is a side-scrolling beat 'em up. The game was released on August 20, 2020, for Windows and Xbox One platforms. It is a reboot of the Battletoads series, and the first new entry in 26 years following 1994's Battletoads Arcade. Battletoads is a beat 'em up video game developed by Dlala Studios with assistance from Rare and published by Xbox Game Studios.
