    It's a game for fans, developed by people who really care. No microtransactions, no bul***, just a perfect game that brings back memories and adds new to the series. Love it and waiting for SOR 5!

    I love this game, really I do, but there is one thing that destroys the whole SoR experience - Boss Music!!!!!!
    SoR1 had it, SoR2 had it & SoR3 failed!!!!

    I really do not know what actually went on in peoples heads when they destroyed the end levels of this game.

    I literally slap my hand against my head with this game in places having played SoR for so many years its an insult!!!

    This game is so much more than just nostalgia bait, it's the tightest, most fun, side-scrolling brawler on the market. The gameplay and fighting systems are legitimately perfect. The Mr. X DLC adds so much replayability to the game it's incredible. I wasn't sold on the soundtrack at first, but over time I came to really like it.

    It's just a total package, especially if you're a fan of

    Streets of Rage 4 es un gran beat 'em up, muy clásico y sin duda uno de los mejores juegos del género.

Alejado de la época arcade, donde triunfaban este tipo de juegos, Streets of Rage 4 ha sabido trasladar a la consola a la perfección las sensaciones de juego que se sentían en las recreativas. La jugabilidad es buenísima, con personajes con movimientos únicos y cada uno rebosante de personalidad. Estos memorables personajes vienen dados en gran parte por su diseño, que al igual que el de todos los enemigos es magnífico. La dirección artística es sublime, y la banda sonora tiene momentos increíbles. Como puntos negativos puede estar la duración, posiblemente escasa para algunos jugadores pero para mi está adecuada a los estándares del género; la historia, que me ha parecido bastante anecdótica y poco interesante; la más que notable ausencia de doblaje en las secuencias de viñetas; y el uso de algunos personajes como bosses para reutilizarlos y no tener que hacer nuevos. El DLC trae contenido interesante, como un modo infinito para ver cuantas rondas aguantas, pero me esperaba algo más de él. Por lo demás, Streets of Rage 4 es sin dudas la mejor manera de acercarte a este género en la actualidad y lo recomiendo a quienes busquen experiencias nuevas en el mundo del videojuego y sobre todo a quien tenga con quien jugarlo, ya que el multijugador del juego lo hace mucho más disfrutable. 8,6/10

    Nice job!
    Brought me to my childhood memories when I played it on SEGA. Thank you!
    The SEGA logo, in the beginning, was a cool nostalgia!

While critics gave it good reviews, I still believe the game is underappreciated. My only complaint is that only one fighter can run. Despite that issue, this is a nearly flawless revival. Nostalgia runs deep here. The presentation is amazing. I love the artwork, the animation and the electronic music. Along with local play, you can partner online. In addition to the campaign, there's a Boss, Arcade and VS. mode. Customization includes several filters, a retro soundtrack and classic controls. If you love Streets of Rage, than you'll love this. A masterpiece. I would rate it with a 9.3 out of 10. Expand

    Streets of rage is great but it should be more like street fighter king of fighters and tekken it should also have a campaign mode and a versus mode

    I remember playing Streets of Rage with my friend when I was a kid. Good memories. If this had come out 20 years ago, it would have rocked the beat-em-up brawler genre of gaming. Today though, it's a competent homage to retro games of years past.

    It is a good game but it has very few usable characters, not great but entertaining and in my opinion 12 stages are really short stages I have never played other street of rage games but the visuals in this game are so much fun and I enjoy it. enemy types is a good game but there are still things to do and it has something really cool online and arcade mode are really fun i recomend this game

The thoughtful level design introduces you to new enemies and mechanics in a way that doesn't feel unfair. Boss battles can be tough affairs, but there's always a way to absolutely wreck them. The Mr. X Nightmare DLC is essential if you want to get the most fun out of this experience because survival mode adds a whole new dimension to the game with unlockable moves and other rewards. Really really good 8/10. Expand

    A beat em up doesn't get better than this. A fantastic evolution of a classic franchise. Everything from the characters, game modes and music is just perfect and everything I've could've wanted from a Streets of Rage sequel.

    Jogo extremamente viciante e frenético, combate altamente responsivo, level design muito bem feito, música combinando perfeitamente com o ambiente, um verdadeiro novo clássico desse gênero fantástico.

    buen juego, el problema es la poca evolución en 30 años

    el muñeco se mueve lento, y los enemigos tienen demasiada facilidad para rodearte y golpearte a su antojo son más, más rápidos, con más armas, más tipos de ataques y más alcance además, la cámara debería de estar más alta o con una sombra más marcada para medir bien la situación en pantalla par no fallar golpes contra enemigos

    sólo una IA desfasada podría nivelar la balanza, y es lo que ocurre..., algo que no es nada bueno
    el combate puede resultar injusto, y lo intentan arreglar con montones de vida

    está muy bien el diseño por niveles, dificultad y ayudas, para que cualquiera se lo pueda pasar
    el juego va de más a menos, buena banda sonora, gráficos aceptables, argumento pobre

    Very poor overpriced rubbish. I've been playing video games all my life and the original is a classic. This is a poor money spinning exercise.

    I am having such a blast playing this game! I easily recommend it to all beat'em up fans, specially the ones who experienced SOR 1, 2 and 3 on Mega Drive. Amazing. Beautiful graphics and colors, nice improvements on fight mechanics and on gameplay overall, beautiful tribute to older SORs, great characters, cool story. I absolutely loved it.

    Такие игры делают, конечно же, для повзрослевших детей, ностальгирующих по сеговским играм. Важный момент - это чтобы игра ощущалась сегодня на твоей своременной консоли ровно как в детстве, дарила те же эмоции, чтобы была такой же, какой ты запомнил предыдущую часть.
    В SOR4 всё в полном порядке. Анимация, механики, стиль, костюмы, ощущения - всё на 10 из 10.

    Streets of Rage 4 takes you back to the days of the SEGA Mega Drive with it's slick action and vibrant visuals. Hopefully it will spark a new wave of side scrolling beat-em ups.

    Played it on a macbook with dualshock 4 controller and it could not be more fun. Reminded me of my SEGA genesis days, Life was used to be awesome back then. Game has everything we could expect from a STREETS OF RAGE game.

    Streets of Rage 4 is not here to redefine the genre. It’s here to give fans something they have waited over 2 decades for and it doesn’t disappoint.

    Streets of Rage is a declaration of love for Segas's Beat 'em Up classic and skillfully transports the game's principle into the modern age.
