Toxic Crusaders Crawl Back From ’90s Pixel Graveyard
After a saga of delays that fans might call 'a discouraging journey,' the cult classic cartoon Toxic Crusaders finally stomps back into our lives as a side-scrolling beat ’em up video game. Retroware’s pixel art revival drops December 4 on every major platform, letting you fight alongside seven rad characters with 'unique movesets and abilities.' For anyone still waiting for season two that never came, this game bravely continues where the show left off — complete with returning baddies like Dr. Killemoff and his 'two bumbling henchmen,' proving toxic never went out of style.
