Dotemu, Lizardcube and Guard Crush Games today released the first gameplay teaser trailer for Streets of Rage 4, giving everyone a first look at this all-new entry to SEGA’s most iconic beat ‘em up series.
As the press release reads, Streets of Rage 4’s vibrant visuals, courtesy of the team behind 2017’s stunning Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap remake, aim to bring the game’s troubled city to life with a fluid, exaggerated style. The game’s hand-drawn animation adds a burst of flair to every pummeling while still encompassing the gritty aesthetic perfected within the original trilogy.
Streets of Rage 4 is the first installment to the mainline series in more than two decades and will revitalize the iconic baddie-bashing gameplay with modern touches, fresh pulsing jams, and more surprises to be revealed. The team behind Streets of Rage 4 is drawing from a lifetime of love for brawlers to introduce new fans and remind veterans alike why Streets of Rage is one of SEGA’s most beloved series.
Enjoy!

why do punches in this game sound like nerfed firecrackers?
They’re using the originals’ sound effects. We can only wait and see if that’s a toggleable feature, a place holder, or the actual final sound effects.
I don’t think they are using the original sounds, i remember they sounded more punchy, no pun intended.
F* A!
Seems not bad!
I just hope this game comes to the PC,
Waiting for that Epic Store Announcement to ruin my childhood memories.
Hand drawn 2D games are always better than 2.5D/3D beat’em up. So nostalgic. Can’t wait to play. looks stunning
artstyle is terible. looks like something from tumblr
Are the silhouettes implying some later character reveals.
Day One buy.
