The video game Cuban Fighters, created by the Cuban programmer known on TikTok as @ore_dev, or @ore_inkcredible2, has once again sparked excitement on social media with the addition of a new character that seems to be inspired by the controversial influencer Alexander Otaola.
In his latest video, the developer introduced the supposed avatar of Otaola with a cartoonish and provocative style, specifically designed to create an impact among users.
"For his attacks, I decided to shoot a ball of poison since he's somewhat venomous like a snake," Ore explained, amid laughter.
The character can also attack from a great distance thanks to their secret weapon, "a very long tongue that they have," making them a formidable opponent within the game.
The setting where this new fighter battles is also new. In this case, it is a U.S. courtroom, a nod to the influencer's fondness for lawsuits and his history of legal confrontations with other Cubans in Miami.
Fans of the video game appreciate the developer's ingenuity in reflecting real aspects of Cuban show business. Despite still being in the testing phase, Cuban Fighters can be downloaded for free, and its popularity is growing thanks to the blend of political satire and pop culture.
Chocolate MC, Díaz-Canel and other figures from the ring
The first major character in the game that caught the attention of internet users was the reggaeton artist Chocolate MC, also known as The King of Reparto. His avatar possesses a special power inspired by his song "El palón divino." His attack weapon is a large stick.
One of the most viral scenes shows the musician facing off against a punching bag with the face of the Cuban leader Miguel Díaz-Canel, depicted as a boxing bag.
The creator has invited users to suggest other Cuban characters who could join the battle, in an attempt to make the game more representative of the Cuban popular imagination. Among the recent additions is an avatar of Lucy Sosa, and another of the influencer Kristoff Kriollo (Christopher Gómez).
Cuban Fighters has established itself as a viral phenomenon that combines social critique, entertainment, and urban culture, and it promises to continue growing with each new update.
