Jazwares, a global toy company along with its game studio, has announced a collaboration with Sony Pictures Consumer Products to introduce the “Cobra Kai: Karate Legends” gaming experience to the Roblox platform.

Set to launch this summer timed to the Season 6 release of “Cobra Kai” on Netflix, “Cobra Kai: Karate Legends” on Roblox lets players build and level up their dojo and train to be the best karate sensei. The first five seasons of Cobra Kai are now streaming with the series returning for a sixth and final season with fifteen episodes across three parts. Part 1 premieres July 18 on Netflix. Players can explore a large open map set in “Cobra Kai’s” world of the San Fernando Valley, complete missions to recruit characters from the show to join their dojo, learn karate moves, challenge players in tournaments and more.

“Jazwares Game Studio has a proven track record of bringing some of the world’s biggest entertainment franchises to life on Roblox, producing hit games played by tens of millions of fans worldwide and we’re thrilled ‘Cobra Kai: Karate Legends’ is joining the ranks,” says Judd Karofsky, executive vice president, Jazwares. “We are huge Cobra Kai fans so we’ve been laser-focused on developing an authentic experience with Sony Pictures Consumer Products that captures the heart-pounding action of the series and the epic martial arts moves of the characters we know players are going to love.”

Developed by the Jazwares Game Studio, “Cobra Kai: Karate Legends” will allow players to purchase virtual merchandise to dress and style their Roblox avatars. The “Cobra Kai” Johnny Lawrence figure is available for a limited time in Target stores nationwide and includes an exclusive virtual code to redeem a virtual item.

“We’re looking forward to working with Jazwares Game Studio to bring the ‘Cobra Kai’ universe to a new generation of fans,” says Stacey Kerr, senior vice president, Worldwide Licensing, Sony Pictures Entertainment. “This collaboration with Jazwares helps us deliver an immersive gaming experience to players that is sure to get fans of the show excited for the next season.”
