Rag Doll Kung Fu: Fists of Plastic has been announced exclusively for PS3 via the PlayStation Network. The game is based on the original title by the creator of LittleBigPlanet over at Media Molecule and was developed by Tarsier Studios.

Rag Doll Kung Fu is a fast-paced combat game with an imaginative look and feel. It focuses on fun with exaggerated ragdoll physics and charming High Definition (HD) visual effects. Featuring accessible and intuitive controls, even novice players can orchestrate impressive attacks with ninja-like precision.

Additionally, hardcore players will appreciate the deep combat system, weapons use and strategy. Success depends mightily on the player mastering the basic Kung Fu moves and sharpening his acrobatic skills by swinging off platforms and somersaulting through the air. This action builds up Chi Power, which can be conjured to perform spectacular special attacks and combat sequences via the PS3’s Sixaxis wireless controller. Furthermore, players can taunt their opponents with the Free Pose system, ensuring the battle is infused with lighthearted fun.

Players can perfect their Kung Fu skills in the Solo Adventure and also take their characters online with a variety of addictive free-for-all and team-based multiplayer modes, including: King of the Hill, Assassin and Capture the Fish. Rag Doll Kung Fu is perfect for parties or any time when you’ve got a group of friends wanting to give each other a beat down, since the game offers four-player support for both local and online fighting!
