Summary

Streets of Rage 4 is a side-scrolling beat 'em up that continues the series following the original trilogy. Players fight through Wood Oak City using a mix of returning and new characters, each with their own combat styles and special moves. The game builds on the classic formula with new mechanics while maintaining the responsive, straightforward action the series is known for. Featuring hand-drawn visuals from the team behind Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap, it supports both solo and cooperative play locally or online across multiple difficulty levels.

Storyline

Ten years have passed since the fall of Mr. X and his Syndicate. The city has been at peace... until now. A new crime empire has arisen, corrupting everything good in the city. It is rumored to be led by Mr. X's own children: the Y Twins. Former detectives Axel Stone and Blaze Fielding join forces with their old friend's daughter, Cherry Hunter, along with Floyd Iraia, an apprentice of the brilliant Dr. Zan. Together these four vigilantes stand against the Y Syndicate on the... Streets of Rage.
