Great modern tribute to a cult serie despites the fact that I only play with retro soundtrack (it fits more my musical taste than the new one).

A lot of passion was put in this game to provide a lot of fun. There are a lot of contents (characters, moves, weapons, unlockables and more) and numerous nods to the past episodes. Those are all very welcome.

The original story is a good following and a pleasant addition to the Streets of Rage lore. The gameplay mechanics is delightfully simple at first but rich and various in execution (updated but not to much). I enjoyed playing all characters, the new version of the old ones like the new entries ; but my favourites are Adam (so long awaited come back) and his daughter Cherry.

If you like Streets of Rage or just beat them all, it may be hard to completely dislike this new episode which, at least, provide good play and fun.
