Thanks to series such as Scott Pilgrim, the comic community has appealing to retro 16-bit themed video games. But when you have not only 16-bit games, but also manga created by Nintendo designer Imamura Takama (Captain Falcon co-creator and its infamous Super Mash Bros. Falcon Punch), you What the comics have is something special: the intersection of where Omega 6 meets video games.
Dark Horse Comics announced Omega 6 in October 2025, a complete story in one manga volume that will be available for the first time in English. Gamer) The original French manga version of Omega 6 was released in November 2022.
Here’s an overview of Omega 6:
After awakening from months of rejuvenation stagnation, Androids Thunder and Kyla are ready to go back to their grace hunting behaviour! With the help of some unique magical fruits, the pair enters the almost invincible Berserker state. But there’s a catch. Once the effect fades, they age rapidly and become weaker until they can return to the recovery pod. Their current target, an assassin named Petrogaze, has an attractive $300 million credit bounty on his head. The job seems easy. The duo will power up before dinner, put the bad guys in bags and go home. However, Petrogaze is much tougher than expected! Forced to consume their fruit early, the bounty hunters suddenly get on a timer of life and death. You have to wait for dinner!
“I sincerely hope that my comics and games can be enjoyed by people regardless of where they live, and I would be very happy if my work could provide an exciting and thrilling experience. “Sho!” creator Imamura spoke about bringing the original manga to English readers along with the game.
However, it should be emphasized that there are differences between the two versions of Omega 6.
“The video game version is a completely different story,” confirmed Junji Seki, game director and president of HappyMeal. “(The video game) is set in the same world as the Omega 6 comics, and is full of encounters and battles that permeated the drama with 100 unique aliens created by Imamura. Not only in the manga, but also in the game, Thunder. We hope you enjoy the adventures of Kaira. You may discover characters that appear in both!”
Omega 6 Triangle Stars is also a 16-bit pixel adventure video game that will be released at the end of the month. Available on Nintendo Switch and PC. You can see previews of the games below, but as they tend to be collectibles, I’m also looking at physical copies of limited run games.
The Omega 6 translated cartoon is filled with 216 pages (5.75 inches x 8.25 inches) of retro-futistic fun in a left-to-right style of paperback. Readers can lock in targets for $14.99 when they arrive at bookstores and comic shops on October 21, 2025. The cover introduced below.
