What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
This edition, which serves as a definitive version, brings a wealth of content and polish that enhances both gameplay and presentation, offering players a rich blend of nostalgia and modern design sensibilities.
Sure it's not perfect, but HOLY MOLY is it like a 1000% improvement over the original "Story" mode.
Complementing the visuals is a synth-heavy soundtrack inspired by the era’s signature sound, which perfectly sets the tone and amplifies the game’s nostalgic vibe.
The background is the same and the soundtrack is limited in then number of tracks but engaging for the fight and ambiental in the way that you won't mind hearing it over and over gain.
The roster includes five playable characters, each with distinct moves and special abilities, allowing for varied combat styles.
The new paid game mode ("A Day at the Beach") is absolutely everything most of us wanted from the original game from the beginning, and were disappointed we didn't get: a true old-school co-op side-scrolling brawler in the vein of TMNT; Double Dragon; Streets of Rage; Final Fight; et al.
