Double Dragon Revive

Double Dragon Revive is kind of a "new opening" in the history of the cult beat'em up series under the Double Dragon brand, launched in 1987. The game is the result of cooperation with the Yuke's studio, whose portfolio includes a number of games from the WWE 2K series or AEW: Fight Forever. The release was handled by Arc System Works, which acquired the rights to this brand in 2015.

Plot

In Double Dragon Revive once again we take on the roles of Billy and Jimmy Lee, the main characters of the series and martial arts masters. The protagonists once again have to face their powerful enemies from the past, and it's up to us to ensure they come out unscathed from this confrontation.

Gameplay

In terms of mechanics, Double Dragon Revive does not differ much from what we are accustomed to both from the series itself and from the entire genre. We watch the action from the side, and during the game we control warrior characters who move to the right through city streets and building interiors, eliminating hordes of adversaries along the way.

Our heroes primarily use their own fists and legs (to deliver various blows and kicks), merging attacks into spectacular combinations. This is not everything, as they also make use of melee weapons, which they can pick up to beat up their enemies. Elements of the environment (like trash cans, into which we can throw defeated opponents) are also available.

Graphics

Double Dragon Revive stands out from its predecessors thanks to its three-dimensional graphics.
