    Get ready for the fury!

    Rage of the Dragons brings back the adrenaline of 2D battles with refined gameplay, charismatic characters and a dual combat system that demands strategy and precision. In this game, every blow counts and every decision can be the difference between victory and defeat.

    Rage of the Dragons NEO is a updated version of Rage of the Dragons, released in 2002 for arcades. It was a unique and innovative game, mainly due to its highly praised visuals and technical aspects at the time. With beautiful scenery and animations, incredible moves and an acclaimed soundtrack, it's a must-have for any fighting game lover.

    Famous for being very challenging, Rage of the Dragons NEO is based on tag team battles where the player uses two characters, controlling one at a time, being able to alternate them during combat, and being able to use both at the same time to perform unique special moves.

    Rage of the Dragons NEO features:

    - Dual combat system: choose two fighters and switch between them in real time, creating devastating tricks and combos
    - Iconic characters: Meet a gallery of fighters with unique styles, each with their own story and abilities ranging from the traditional to the supernatural.
    - Classic arcade mode: Relive the golden days of fighting games with arcade mode, taking on a series of opponents in pursuit of the title of champion.

    Rage of the Dragons Neo is a peach of a game. Plucked from the Neo Geo library, it’s been brought back to life with a smooth online experience and a comprehensive package stuffed with bonuses. It’s not for everyone, and don’t be surprised if you get beasted online initially, but for those willing to eke out the depths of its tag team strategy and combo extension methods, it's a furious, flashy, adrenaline-fuelled affair that looks great, sounds great, and plays even better.

    This port is an amazing comeback of one of the greatest counterparts for The King of Fighters in the Neo Geo era. It has many interesting extras, achievements to enrich the single-player experience and, although it could have some balance against bosses and less long loading screens to access modes, this is a great port to have on Switch if you are a fighting game enthusiast.
