Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons is a co-operative beat 'em up featuring tag team duos of fighters infused with roguelite elements to deliver classically informed, highly replayable Double Dragon-style brawls with a new edge.
The game recalls the series’ classic aesthetic with refreshed pixel art visuals, sporting updated-yet-faithful appearances for both returning heroes and villains and a stirring soundtrack which keeps players ready for the next fight. With unlockable bonuses, adjustable difficulty levels and optional permadeath and infinite modes, Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons is a robust revitalization of the series’ signature side scrolling action. With two-player local co-op, the action quadruples as you and a friend clean up the mean streets of NYC. Online co-op is planned as a post-launch update later this year.
Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons launches for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam on Thursday, July 27, 2023.
