Who is excited for streets of rage 4?

[pook99]

Day 1 purchase for me, I think the game looks very good, but I am not going in with unrealistic expectations. I think it will be a very solid beat em up and I am excited to play through it with multiple characters. My only gripe is that Axel looks 15 years older than he did in sor 3 and blaze looks 10 years younger, I get the whole sex appeal thing but is she somehow immune to aging?

Who else is planning to day one this game and where is your hype meter at?

Oh yes, I'm incredibly excited. Will be buying the first moment its available. I'm also just dumb enough to consider buying multiple copies because of... reasons? Supporting the game as much as possible I guess. I'm just very glad the series is back and seems to be in capable hands.

I also just saw the trailer revealing the original character sprites and soundtracks, which I somehow missed in the past couple of weeks, and I'm even more pumped up about it now.

Have a couple of friends interested in playing it together as well. Really looking forward to it.

pre-ordered it (that's how excited I am).

Pretty excited. Waited well over 2 decades for this game to see the light of day. Looking forward to it.

Been listening to S.O.R Super Mix and some other songs from the SOR II soundtrack a lot lately... I forgot SOR4 was coming out. Yeah, I'm excited now.

Very excited, though I do want to see reviews and try to catch a sale. I have a bit of a Switch backlog right now I want to clear through.

I'm excited as well, Streets of Rage 2 is probably my favorite beat 'em up of all time, so I'm glad to see another installment in the series finally being released. The trailers I watched looked good.

My girlfriend pre-ordered a physical copy on Switch, looking forward to playing through it co-op as well. From what I understand, it will have two player online co-op, which is great for everyone's current situation of being mostly stuck at home.

The same with me. I want to read reviews and get a deal on it. BUT I am super pumped for this and have been jonesing for a new Streets of Rage since playing the Remake a couple of years back.
I'm also patiently waiting for the board game I kickstarted that is based on Streets of Rage - Streets of Steel.
