About

Gekido (known as Gekido: Urban Fighters in Europe) is a beat 'em up for the PlayStation game console. The game uses a fast paced beat 'em up system, with many bosses and a colorful design in terms of graphics. The game features the music of Fatboy Slim and Apartment 26. Marvel comic book artist Joe Madureira also contributed. A version of Gekido was also released on the Game Boy Color in Europe. It was later followed by a GBA spin-off called Gekido Advance: Kintaro's Revenge. A second sequel has been announced, Gekido: The Dark Angel.
