Will you be checking out this new update for Rita’s Rewind? How are you finding it so far? Let us know in the comments.
Original Story: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind made its debut on the Switch last week and it’s gone down relatively well so far with critics and fans alike.
In saying this, not everything is available on every platform (like online play), but the developers are working on it and have now rolled out the first major update. The Switch version is expected to receive this update “soon”. Here’s exactly what you can expect:
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita’s Rewind UPDATE: December 2024
“We’ve heard suggestions from lots of players over the last few days, and we’re happy to say we’re rolling out refinements to Rita’s Rewind to adjust various parts of the game based on that feedback. These changes are available on Steam, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4 now, but all players on other platforms will receive this update soon.”

- Megazord boss health has been reduced and damage dealt to bosses has been balanced
- Health power-ups now spawn during Zord boss battles
