A Kato Studios anunciou a produção do jogo "Capoeira" para celulares (Telemóveis), baseado na arte brasileira que mistura dança, esporte e luta.

O jogo pretende reproduzir a fluidez e a beleza da arte desenvolvida pelos escravos. Os 125 quadros de movimentos foram reproduzidos por mestres, e reproduzem golpes como o martelo e a queixada.

Os cenários também serão tipicamente brasileiros, como as ruas de Salvador, a Amazônia Brasileira, as cataratas do Iguaçu e, é claro, o Corcovado do Rio de Janeiro. A trilha sonora pretende ser genuína, ao som de tambores e flautas.

Não é a primeira vez que a capoeira foi usada em um jogo. "Tekken 3", jogo de 1998 para PSOne trazia um personagem brasileiro, Eddy Gordo, que usava essa arte marcial e era dos lutadores mais eficientes do game.
