This is a Steam pix for an upcoming Masters of the Universe 2D brawler called Dragon Pearl of Destruction. Together with an obscure deck builder exclusive on Luna, this lonely bunch constitutes the entire bulk of modern Motu games.
I posted this after watching the film on Prime just now. It was a surprisingly solid watch, and I thought it was worth highlighting how under-used the franchise is in gaming.
An extravagantly visualized setting, colorful characters of all shapes, sizes and genders, plus a ton of action – it has everything you need to churn out crowd pleasing video games.
That has yet to happen. Most of all Motu games ever made were out at least 20 years ago, many in the 80s. You can find a list of them here

Accordingly, the best Motu game is in fact a free fan-made title out in 2013. Worth checking out I guess if you're even remotely interested in the franchise.
Yes it's certainly arguable that Motu is simply not as popular as I think. The recent box office bomb is cited by many as evidence that this is one of the several “boomer” franchises that overestimate their staying power. I hope that's not true becasue imo the source materials are top notched entertainment.
