Announced on at the 2010 King Of Trios event, Rudo Resurrection will be the first game to feature the cast of unusual characters from CHIKARA Pro Wrestling. Details are scarce but the insistence is that CHIKARA has partnered with a like-minded development studio for the project, in order to utilize and convey the promotion's unique sense of humor. The game will be developed by Rogue Brains and will utilize the Unity 3d game engine.
The game would go on to have a failed Kickstarter campaign in the summer of 2014. Since the failed campaign news about the slowly faded away until seemingly the game had been cancelled.
Story
The teaser trailer currently available hints at a plot by UltraMantis Black and his Order of The Neo-Solar Temple disciple Crossbones to resurrect the Tecnicos (in Lucha-Libre wrestling, the good guys) of CHIKARA's past to create an army for his own uses.
The developer Rogue Brains has also indicated that the main story of this CHIKARA season (that of The Bruderschaft des Kreuzes) will be at the centre of the story, suggesting that the early trailer may be a subplot to the main game.
