Streets of Rage 4 revealed
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
SEGA’s classic Streets of Rage series is seeing a revival with Streets of Rage 4, Lizardcube, Guard Crush Games and Dotemu have announced. A release date and platforms have not been confirmed as of yet.
Typically we hold off on news about brand new titles unless we receive confirmation about it being bound for a Nintendo system. However, given the companies involved here, we do believe a Switch release will happen. This game comes from Dotemu and Lizardcube – the publisher and developer of Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap respectively. Considering how well that title did on the eShop, it seems certain that Streets of Rage 4 will be on Switch.

Arena of Valor was originally a mobile game. For the Switch version, Tencent has taken that base, but has made some improvements and changes.
