DotEmu has officially announced that stomach-kneeing, skull-cracking, German-suplexin’ brawler Streets of Rage 4 will launch April 30 on PS4, PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.
The long-awaited sequel to the Sega Genesis classics sees the return of vigilantes Axel Stone, Blaze Fielding and Adam Hunter – accompanied by new stars Cherry Hunter and Floyd Iraia – as they return to the mean streets of Wood Oak City, cleaning up crime as only they know how: with the business end of a steel pipe.
The new trailer, posted below, reveals the inclusion of “Battle Mode”, that will allow up to four players to pick their favourite hero and face off in free-for-all or team-based combat. As previously reported, Streets of Rage 4 will include unlockable “Retro” options, allowing players to play with classic 16-bit sprites, while throwing down to Yuzo Koshiro’s timeless soundtrack.
Streets of Rage 4 launches April 30 on PS4, PC, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. A physical edition is currently available to pre-order from Limited Run Games.
