Streets of Rage 4 has been officially announced, first gameplay footage revealed

DotEmu and SEGA have announced that they are working on a brand new part in the Streets of Rage beat em up series. The game will be developed by Lizardcube, Guard Crush Games and Dotemu, and its debut trailers has been released (featuring small doses of gameplay footage).

Featuring hand-drawn visuals from the team behind 2017’s gorgeous Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap remake, Streets of Rage 4 will build upon the classic trilogy’s gameplay with new mechanics, a fresh story and a gauntlet of dangerous stages with a serious crime problem.

While SEGA and DotEmu did not reveal any additional details, we can assume from the trailer that players will be able to play as Axel Stone or Blaze Fielding, and there will be co-op support.

DotEmu did not reveal the release date or the platforms for which Streets of Rage 4 will release but since Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap has been also released for the PC, we can safely assume that Streets of Rage 4 will also come to our platform.

Enjoy the game’s announcement trailer and stay tuned for more!

  1. Can’t wait to see how they will manage by chance to make a better game than any of the three overrated games of the serie…same for the music…you don’t know yet the luck of not having Yuzo “eurodance” Koshiro as composer 😀

    1. You really looking forward to a series you hate don’t you? And they have an obligation to make a better game graphics and mechanics wise, since this isn’t the 90’s anymore…

  3. Damnnnn… totally unexpected. The art style seems very unusual for this game. Although it’s been forever since I played whichever one it was on the old Sega system. So I totally forgot how the game looked. Didn’t even know there was 3 of em. Must of played the second one in the series.

  4. Good news! I love DOT.EMU works and the respect they have for the old glories, but the should hire some good japanese graphic designers. Honestly the graphic of their games seem like mobile crap and often betrays the original spirit of the game. In this case I would have preferred a pixel art operation like Sonic Mania.

  5. Wow, didnt expect this. One of my favorite game series from the Megadrive. Cant say im into the art style but im definitely looking forward to playing it. The game im working on right now is a beat-em-up too so hopefully this can spark a resurgence for this genre.
