Kick & Fennick Port to Home Consoles
Valkenswaard, The Netherlands – March 3, in the year of our
Lord 2016 – One of the most unique and evocative platforming
titles released in 2015 is making its way to consoles!
Independent game publisher Abstraction Games and developer
Jaywalkers Interactive announced today that Kick & Fennick,
released in February of 2015 to the PS Vita, is launching later
this year on the Xbox One, the all-in-one games and
entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStation®4, as well
as the Wii U system.
Kick & Fennick tells the story of a young boy named Kick who
finds himself waking up in a bright and colorful, yet dangerous
world. Armed with a giant gun that can be used to shoot down
enemy robots, while also allowing him to make huge jumps using
the weapon's powerful recoil, Kick searches for a way to the
highest tower in the city to find a new energy core for Fennick,
his helpful flying robot friend. Together they must explore this
strange, new world, jumping and shooting their way through 45
levels of collapsed skyscrapers, treadmills, bouncypads,
magnets, teleporters, and a big guard robot that is never far
behind!

experience. We've had fantastic reactions and can’t wait for a
wider audience to be able to play through it,” said Vincent

fans looking for a breath of fresh air in the genre should
definitely check it out, and we can’t wait to hear their
feedback.”
