Last week, Dotemu and LizardCube released Streets of Rage 4, a follow-up to the beloved Sega Genesis brawler franchise from the ’90s. Fans have been waiting more than 25 years for a new game in the series, but Streets of Rage 4 seems to have been worth the wait! The title’s gameplay, visuals, and soundtrack have clearly struck a chord with long-time fans and newcomers alike. Given the success LizardCube and Dotemu found with their remake of Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap, it should come as little surprise, but it’s always nice to see a long-awaited sequel prove worth the wait!
