The tragic killing of the gorilla Harambe in the Cincinnati Zoo lead to a public backlash against its administration, the spawn of viral internet memes and even songs on YouTube. However, very few people could have anticipated that we would soon be seeing a game based on the unfortunate event as well. This has now happened as a person has created a Harambe vs. Capcom video game for the PC.
The story of the unusual game implies that Harambe comes to find out that a shadow agency has discovered the gorilla's psychic abilities and is sending an extermination team to kill him. As a result, Harambe decides to fake his own death and prove himself against Ryu, who will then lead him to the airport to escape to Africa, where he will try to "fix" this.
The seemingly ludicrous game is created by "Otaku Gang", which describes itself as an "underground culture collective" that is "capable of making beats, rocking shows, and even developing video games". The group has stated that the game is a fan tribute to "our bro Harambe" and everything related to Capcom.
According to Polygon, Harambe vs. Capcom weighs 352 MB in size, and is available to download for free. It boasts a roster of 21 characters, out of which three are "mystery characters". You can download the game on your PC at your own risk by hitting the source link below.
