IguanaBee focused on how Kong’s origins came to life in its cross-gen game.

Here’s the game’s overview: “Your reign is at hand! Based on the rich history of Skull Island, developed by creator Joe DeVito and based on Merian C. Cooper’s King Kong, this exhilarating third-person action-adventure game lets you become Kong on a journey of vengeance as you fight to claim your rightful place as King of Skull Island. Take on an action-packed quest to avenge the death of Kong’s parents at the hands of the ultimate alpha predator: the saurian terror Gaw. Traverse the mysterious island and uncover its secrets across various treacherous environments, discovering the power coursing through its exotic flora and fauna. Conquer waves of primal beasts, defeat unique bosses, and rise above all who stand in Kong’s way to being King!

Start your journey as the orphaned Kong and experience his evolution to the King of Skull Island as you hunt for revenge against Gaw. Deal devastating combos to dominate Gaw’s ferocious minions, and unleash your rage to heighten the impact of your attacks. Send even the most enormous enemies fleeing with your earth-shattering roar and brutal finishing attacks. Gain new abilities through special events and intense boss fights to unlock Kong’s full potential. Explore mountainous terrain, jungles, swamps, skullite-filled caves, and more to unearth collectibles, open new areas, and learn more about the mysterious history of this faraway land.”

Skull Island: Rise of Kong will cost $40, but the digital deluxe edition, dubbed Colossal Edition, will be $50. It will include eight exclusive film grains featuring the ability to experience a red-tinted rage mode and the original look of the classic 1933 and 1970s-era King Kong films, the Kong style pack with eight different colors to customize our Kong; a boss-rush mode allowing you to defeat all the titans of Skull Island, and a behind-the-scenes exclusive pack including looks at in-game artwork and the all-original orchestral soundtrack.

GameMill Entertainment will release Skull Island: Rise of Kong for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PC (Steam), PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch in the autumn.
