Berkshire Hathaway’s Jazwares, a leading global toy company and renowned game studio, has partnered with Sony Pictures Consumer Products to launch the official Cobra Kai: Karate Legends gaming experience on Roblox.
Timed to coincide with the season six release of Cobra Kai on Netflix this summer, Cobra Kai: Karate Legends on Roblox allows players to build and level up their own dojo, training to become the best karate sensei. Players can explore a vast open map set in Cobra Kai’s San Fernando Valley, complete missions to recruit characters from the show, learn epic karate moves, and challenge others in tournaments. The game aims to capture the thrilling action and martial arts of the series.
Judd Karofsky, Executive Vice President at Jazwares, expressed excitement about the project, stating, “Jazwares Game Studio has a proven track record of bringing some of the world’s biggest entertainment franchises to life on Roblox, and we’re thrilled Cobra Kai: Karate Legends is joining the ranks. We’re huge Cobra Kai fans and have focused on creating an authentic experience that captures the heart-pounding action of the series.”
Cobra Kai: Karate Legends, developed by Jazwares Game Studio, will also offer players the chance to purchase virtual merchandise to customize their Roblox avatars. For added excitement, the Cobra Kai Johnny Lawrence figure, available for a limited time at Target stores, includes a virtual code for an exclusive in-game item.
Stacey Kerr, SVP of Worldwide Licensing at Sony Pictures Entertainment, remarked, “We’re looking forward to working with Jazwares Game Studio to bring the Cobra Kai universe to a new generation of fans. This collaboration helps us deliver an immersive gaming experience that will excite fans for the upcoming season.”
All six seasons of Cobra Kai are now streaming on Netflix, with the sixth and final season having premiered on July 18.
