Popular Post crimsonidol38 Posted August 27, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) DotEmu officially announced that Lizard Cube, the creator's behind the Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap-remake, will develop a new entry in the Streets of Rage-series. Platforms and release date haven't been announced yet. Description Publisher Dotemu (Wonder Boy, Windjammers 1/2) and developers Lizardcube (Wonder Boy) and Guard Crush Games today revealed Streets of Rage 4, an all-new continuation of SEGA’s iconic arcade brawler series known for its radical fights, jammin’ ‘90s beats and dashing sparring gloves and bandanas. History A cult classic Streets of Rage, known as Bare Knuckle (ベア・ナックル Bea Nakkuru) in Japan, is a trilogy of beat 'em up games developed and published by SEGA in the 1990s. Famously known for its non stop action and electronic dance influenced music - scored by Yuzo Koshiro and Motohiro Kawashima - the series has gained the status of cult classic throughout the years. It is considered one of the best beat 'em up series of all time. After many years, Axel and Blaze are finally picking up the fight where they left. Featuring hand-drawn visuals from the team behind 2017’s gorgeous Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap remake, Streets of Rage 4 builds upon the classic trilogy’s gameplay with new mechanics, a fresh story and a gauntlet of dangerous stages with a serious crime problem. Streets of Rage 4 recalls classic gameplay but it stands as an entirely original arcade-style romp thanks to the expertise of Guard Crush Games and Dotemu. Whether players gang up with a friend or clean up the city solo, Streets of Rage 4 is a skull-bashing, chicken-chomping delight all set to a thumping soundtrack sure to get your blood pumping. Features The comeback of the legendary Streets of Rage series. Beautiful graphics fully hand-drawn animated by the studio behind Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap. Classic gameplay enhanced with brand new mechanics. Braised chicken served on a pristine plate.

crimsonidol38 Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) The only thing I personally miss from the trailer and the screenshots is the grittiness and some kind of darker colors. The SoR-games tended to have more muted colors. But nonetheless, I'm pretty hyped to see that a revival of the series. Now can we hope for a Daytona, Outrun, Sega Rally, or Hang-On next? Or maybe Golden Axe? Edited August 27, 2018 by Crimson Idol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) I hope this comes to every console so old school gamers can reminisce on the good old Sega Genesis days. Good times playing this with my brothers growing up Looking forward to seeing more gameplay. There was a game called Furious Jack on KickStarter that I really wanted to release on consoles but it didn't, so Streets of Rage 4 will have to do.

kraven_15 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Nice! Games like this are great. I remember having a great time when they released Double Dragon Neon... I'd imagine this will bring the same joy. It looks really nice graphically speaking too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it truly is perfect for Switch, also being on PS4 or Xbox isn't going to change that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody can have a platform preference, sure, and if you want to play it on the Switch, that's fine, but hoping for a third-party indie game to be platform exclusive when the team that is making has shown support for PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Switch before is a bit silly.

RadiantFlamberge Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Looks good. Screen shots alone don't do it justice- you have to see the trailer. I don't want this to be trapped in exclusivity for one system. If there's a Vita version, I'll buy it also. All I ask is that Yuzo Koshiro compose the soundtrack for it, & another 2 characters join Blaze & Axel... make that 3 actually, because I want Roo. If we can't have Yuzo, Gecko Yamori is my 2nd choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it truly is perfect for Switch, also being on PS4 or Xbox isn't going to change that. Not necessarily, depending on how much work is required to program for each console now (ie, the difference between ps3 & ps4 essentially required two different games to be developed), it may not be worth it to the developer. Xbox and ps are similar now, both basically being g PC architecture. I'm not sure about the switch Edited August 28, 2018 by AJ_-_808 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurtlePM Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) 11 hours ago, SnowxSakura said: hopefully a switch exclusive, would be perfect for it The irony about this is that Streets of Rage was one of the best beat ‘em ups on that generation (exclusive to Sega), compared to Nintendo’s Final Fight. And now, it would be “perfect” on Switch (Exclusive)?!! I honestly hope that Nintendon’t Edited August 28, 2018 by TurtlePM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
