#BringKaoBack – In Early 2019 the community started an initiative marked by the hashtag #BringKaoBack to support and bring their favorite character back to a modern platform.

As an answer to these requests, we have published a remastered Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2 on Steam. On June 1st, 2019 – as a gift for our community we have launched the game on Steam for free. Within 24 hours Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2 has been downloaded by over 750 000 players!

#Kao4Australia – January 2020 – as soon as we found out about the horrific bushfires in Australia we have decided to support the worldwide relief – after all we are talking about Kao’s motherland. We started the 10 days fundraiser – all the Kao The Kangaroo: Round 2 Steam profits were donated to the WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service Inc.)

Loading… please wait – Since June 1st, 2020, all the Kao fans are wondering what is going on. There were hundreds of speculations: Is there a Kao sequel in production? Or maybe a trilogy remaster? Now we are happy to confirm:

Kao is Back!
