Game pageStreets of Rage 4: finding the next hit
Beyond beating an enemy, what can you connect after launching them? Reviews describe the pleasure of experimenting with combos.
What makes it fun
Keep the juggle going
Launch an enemy, then decide how to follow up. Finding a combo that connects changes how you handle the next encounter.
Fight for your green health
A special move puts recoverable health on the line. Deciding whether you can land the follow-up before taking a hit gives each use of the move some bite.
Rethink a stage with a new fighter
Each character moves and strings attacks together differently. Switching fighters gives you a reason to approach a familiar stage in a new way.
