In a genre this straightforward, even something as simple as a slippery floor can make a stage stand out. One of many bosses returning from the classic games is a dominatrix, and when she literally whips her manservants into a frenzy, they no longer get stunned by your hits.
In another level you fight your way down a hallway reminiscent of Oldboy there's a sauna with a wet floor that you and enemies both go slipping and sliding across. In Chinatown, you fight your way through a huge stream of enemies using polearms to keep your distance. One of his special attacks is a long-distance grab, which I used liberally to pull in weak enemies and then throw them into others to buy some breathing room.Įven if it's not trying to innovate, Streets of Rage 4 is delightfully playful with its stage designs and some little flourishes here and there.

I gravitated towards the nimble Blaze, whose somersault kick is great at knocking enemies out of the air and piling them up.Īt first I struggled with avoiding attacks with the slower characters, like Axel and series newcomer Floyd, but as I played more, Floyd and his giant metal arms became my main squeeze. These moves do a great job of expanding on the possible actions you can take at any given moment, a nice change from classic beat-em-ups where you could press punch, or jump and punch.
