    Unfortunately this is not a real Streets of Rage by Sega. The moves are not as good as the originals, the cartoon style is tasteless, environments looks banal, the music is awful. A pale copy of the genesis game.
    They kept some graphics and sound effects from the original, and there is some punch in the fight, but all in all it's really mediocre.

    Bad choice of art style, reminds me of cheap flash games.gameplay slow and never feels like the 3 original masterpieces.definitely not worthy of Streets of Rage franchise license.

Sure, this game looks and sounds great and has plenty of fan service...but that’s unfortunately it. The gameplay is a serious regression from most of the other modern beat em ups available right now. No parrying, running or even sidestepping...which would be fine if the enemies and bosses weren’t designed around being able to do all of these things. The end result is a cheap, frustrating experience that pales in comparison to the original trilogy as well as its contemporaries. Do yourself a favor and buy Fight ‘n’ Rage instead- it’s a true evolution of the brawler formula and is challenging without resorting to **** If the Streets of Rage name wasn’t (wrongfully) attached to this lackluster title...I guarantee you it wouldn’t be getting the scores I’ve been seeing it get.… Expand

    Well... it's a really difficult game to evaluate.
    it's not fun.
    Just a word, no fun!

    Game is too repetitive, and the gameplay is slow for almost all the characters. Also, I didnt like the sound of fits and kicks from modern chars, it sounds empy, and you can see the difference with retro characters with a much better sound.

    Game overrated by the press and nostalgia, you have to be objective, it is a very regular game for today, it is disappointing, simply not being able to run and roll already screw you, then how heavy and long it is, without alternative or final routes to play again, secret characters that seem to have been placed there by modders, because those pixelated characters don't match theGame overrated by the press and nostalgia, you have to be objective, it is a very regular game for today, it is disappointing, simply not being able to run and roll already screw you, then how heavy and long it is, without alternative or final routes to play again, secret characters that seem to have been placed there by modders, because those pixelated characters don't match the aesthetics of the game, so how unbalanced they are… Expand

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

    está muy bien el diseño por niveles, dificultad y ayudas, para que cualquiera se lo pueda pasar

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game lives and breaths on nostalgia and its predecessors legacy. Ive been looking forward to this game for over a year, and was highly disappointed. Picture completing a 1-2 hour game, and that last, final punch resulting in... credits. Unlockables? Sprites from previous games. Dashing? Maybe some characters.. everyone else moves at a snail pace. .. invisibility frames, super armored enemies, little to nothing to work towards.. can honestly say this was the worst $25 > ever spent… Expand

    Tutto quello che si può chiedere ad un beat em up : ottimi artwork di scenari e personaggi, musica coinvolgente, difficoltà molto ben tarata e tante, tante mazzate!

    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

    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.

    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.

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!

    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!!!

    Streets of Rage 4 offers a varied and fun beat'em up, with a wide variety of game modes that can be enjoyed both alone and in company. If you are fans of the genre, this is your title.

    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.
