North Korea’s Kim Jong-Un and Dennis Rodman join forces in Glorious Leader!

North Korea’s supreme leader Kim Jong-un will star in his own video game called Glorious Leader!

American independent entertainment and gaming company Moneyhorse Games says Glorious Leader! is an epic tale that that will let you play Kim Jong-un as he takes on the entire American army in a retro-style side-scrolling run and gun reminiscent of Contra.

And just like Contra featured the deadly duo of Bill "Mad Dog" Rizer and Lance "Scorpion" Bean, Glorious Leader! pairs Kim Jong-un with his buddy, former Chicago Bulls player Dennis “The Worm” Rodman.

Moneyhorse Games CEO Jeff Miller told The Guardian in an interview the game hopes to "carefully walk the line of satire without being an apologist for the regime."

Glorious Leader! will release on PC and mobile devices “soon.”
