Limited Run Games and Mattel are teaming up with Bitmap Bureau to bring us a brand new pixel art side-scrolling He-Man game in 2026 on Switch.

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction will feature 12 stages from the iconic toy line and cartoon where you'll be able to play as He-Man, Teela, Man-At-Arms, and a range of other favorites. Skeletor is the one you'll be taking on — eventually. Oh, and of course you can ride Battle Cat.

Due in 2026

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction - February 4, 2027
(PC/PS5/XSX/NSW2/PS4/XB1)

It's Golden Axe with a He-Man skin

Eternia is in peril! The nefarious Skeletor has uncovered the ancient Dragon Pearl of Destruction, a relic of unspeakable power. With the help of Evil-Lyn, he intends to perform a ritual that will plunge all of Eternia into eternal darkness. Only the Most Powerful Man in the Universe and his heroic allies stand in Skeletor’s way.
Developed by the retro-specialists at Bitmap Bureau in collaboration with Mattel, this is the 2D arcade brawler fans have been waiting for since the Saturday mornings of their childhood.
Take control of He-Man, Man-At-Arms, and Teela in a fast-paced, magic-brawler that blends the crunch of arcade classics with the high-fantasy action of the animated series. Harness character-specific moves, devastating special abilities, and screen-clearing magic to decimate the forces of evil.

Features

• Stunning Retro Revival: Experience Eternia like never before with massive, highly-detailed pixel-art sprites and lush environments that look exactly like the original 1980s cartoon come to life.
• A Legendary Roster: Play as He-Man, Man-At-Arms, Teela and unlock She-Ra as a playable character in future playthroughs! Each hero features a unique playstyle, from He-Man’s raw power to Teela’s agile staff combat.
• Ride into Battle: It wouldn’t be Masters of the Universe without Battle Cat! Mount He-Man’s fearless feline companion to tear through Skeletor’s minions with tooth and claw.
• 12 Action-Packed Stages: Battle your way across the diverse landscapes of Eternia, from the Royal Palace and the Vine Jungle to the dark corridors of Snake Mountain.
• Classic Co-op Action: Team up with a friend in 2-player local co-op to deliver double the justice. Perfect for those who grew up playing side-by-side at the arcade.
• Deep-Cut Villains: Square off against iconic foes including Skeletor, Evil-Lyn, Beast Man, and Trap Jaw, along with deep-lore appearances like the dark sorceress Shokoti and the Shadow Beasts.
