What do you get when you combine jet skis, racing, and kawaii girls? Well, it’s none other than Kandagawa Jet Girls. The game was first released in Japan back in January of this year, but it’s now available worldwide for the PC and PlayStation 4.
The game is based on the anime television series of the same name which ran from October 2019 to January 2020. The series focuses on a sport known as Jet Racing where two girls need to work together. The Jetter is the one that pilots the Jet Ski while the Shooter is charged with taking down the other teams with a water gun.
The game, much like the anime, follows the journey of Rin Namiki and Misa Aoi as they take part in Jet Racing to become the best in Japan. Along the way they meet new friends while also making new rivals. There are a total of seven teams, which means a choice of seven Jet Skis and 14 different characters. Characters and Jet Skis are interchangeable and can be chosen in both online and offline modes.
While the work of the Jetter is rather straightforward, the Shooter has access to different types of water-based weapons. These include Dual Handguns, a Sniper Rifle, a Gatling Gun, and even a Missile Launcher. Each weapon has a different firing style and its own cool-downs.
Customization is also the name of the game, with players getting the chance to dress up their characters in more than 60 outfits. Players can also customize their Jet Ski using more than 50 machine parts. Along with the racing action, there are also four mini-games that can help players take their minds off the main campaign, even if for a little while.
Kandagawa Jet Girls is available for the PC through the Standard Digital Edition at $49.99. There is also the Digital Deluxe Edition available for $59.99. The Digital Deluxe Edition offers the base game along with the full digital soundtrack. It also comes with the Maid Bikini (Lemon Yellow) and Bunny Costume (Carrot Orange) outfits. Both outfits are going to be available for purchase separately as well.
The PlayStation 4 version also has the Standard Digital Edition at $49.99 and the Digital Deluxe Edition at $59.99. The Digital Deluxe Edition has the base game, digital soundtrack, exclusive PS4 theme, and the PSN Avatar Set that includes 14 avatars.
