  • Summary: Ra Ra Boom is an eye-catching, distinctive fast-paced four-player co-op beat 'em up driven by a meaningful and emotional coming-of-age narrative about a group of ninja cheerleaders from space in a fight to save the rest of humanity on Earth. Building on the game's core frenetic beat 'em upRa Ra Boom is an eye-catching, distinctive fast-paced four-player co-op beat 'em up driven by a meaningful and emotional coming-of-age narrative about a group of ninja cheerleaders from space in a fight to save the rest of humanity on Earth. Building on the game's core frenetic beat 'em up 2D action co-op gameplay, Ra Ra Boom incorporates huge boss battles and ranged attacks to create diverse gameplay within the traditional beat 'em up genre. Each of the ninja cheerleaders will sport upgradable combos for both melee and ranged attacks featuring light, heavy and special attacks to keep each fight fresh and fierce.

    Ra Ra Boom also augments traditional beat 'em up gameplay with its unique integrated lane system. Integrating horizontal lanes naturally into the hand-drawn environments, you'll be able to tell which enemy you're targeting with a flurry of furious blows - whether in melee range or attacking from a distance using ranged attacks. With the ability to quickly switch between lanes, you can strategically target multiple opponents, racking up massive combos any true beat-'em-up fan can enjoy.    … Expand

    A side-scrolling beat 'em up in which it's feasible to simply shoot your enemies rather than actually punch and kick them into submission, Ra Ra BOOM stands out in what is inexplicably becoming a crowded genre. It has some issues that bring it down, though, including poor balancing and some technical woes on PS5 Pro.

    The debut release from Gylee Games has a lot going for it; a charming cartoony aesthetic and reliably punchy fisticuffs being at the forefront of that particular list. Yet, it also feels too light on content, suggesting we might have to wait for a sequel before Ra Ra Boom’s true potential is realised.
