    Hey folks, just added Absolum to my Steam Curator page, and oh my goodness this game is fantastic! It's a roguelike beat-em-up from the Streets of Rage 4 developers that feels kinda like a modern take on Golden Axe, and it feels incredibly Juicy™ to play! store.steampowered.com/app/1904480/...

    INCOMING CANON FIRE! A deep dive into the ABSOLUM, the latest from the Streets of Rage 4 team! I dig into how it evolves the arcade spirit of games like Capcom's Dungeons and Dragons beat-em-ups, its remix of fantasy tropes, and even its take on gender and identity. canonfire.net/post/7992333...

    Just noticed that Fight'N Rage is down to just $2 again. Probably my favourite arcade brawler of the past decade. Yes, better than Streets Of Rage 4. It has a lot of mechanical similarities, but a heavily branching, replayable story mode, tons of unlockables and ULTRA high skill ceiling.

    for my money Streets of Rage 4 is as close as we've come in the past decade-ish to a perfect "pure" arcade action game, no RPG mechanics or roguelike stuff or metroidvania etc, just "master the game system" as its own justification. Shinobi III is my favorite 2D action game, so....I have high hopes!

    They added a survival mode to the TMNT game that came out last year and it doesn't seem quite as robust as the Streets of Rage 4 one, but it's still good and you can turn into guys like Bebop and Rocksteady sometimes which rules

    In a little over a week, Streets of Rage 4 will celebrate its 5th anniversary. It's still pretty unreal to me that a game we waited decades for now exists, and not only did it turn out great, but it also built a new audience for the series! I can't wait to unveil what I'm working on for this game.

    Game 334: Streets of Rage 4 In my eyes, this is what the pinnacle of the traditional beat 'em up looks like. A classic experience modernized and almost perfected, one that manages to evolve each and every aspect of the genre in a very organic way, while looking absolutely stunning in the process.

    Reminded of the 2020 Battletoads game which absolutely whiffed it in every possible way when games like TMNT: Shredders Revenge, Streets Of Rage 4 and Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind gave a shit about its series and gameplay mechanics. Man, should they make a new Battletoads in the vein of these now?

    Absolum so far has been great, has that solid Beat Em Up gameplay similar to what the devs have done before with Streets Of Rage 4, while also making a Hades-ish roguelike bit to it, game has the sauce! I have HORRIBLE depth perception so this will be a lot harder for me but we will push through 😂

    Game #39 of 2025 Streets of Rage 4 A fairly basic side scrolling beat 'em up. But it's quite fun as it only lasts 3 hours, it doesn't overstay its welcome which is a welcome change from a majority of games. I'd argue it's worth picking up but only on a heavy discount.

    Yes! 20-30mins for a 1cc is the sweet spot imo but will get you nuked by reviewers. Its not 20-30 minutes total! Its infinitely repeatable gold. MS3 is too long. Streets of Rage 4 also too long. But that’s what the market demands! Its as silly to judge an arcade game on limited length as a song.

    Streets Of Fury EX, aka 'lol lmao the one with the Nostalgia Critic'. Yes. But it's also the first game by the team that went on to make Streets Of Rage 4 and Absolum. Even with zero budget and no artists, they understood what made a great brawler. A heart of gold beneath a photo-sourced jank skin

    Sega stating that Streets of Rage 4 takes place only 10 years after the 3rd game (despite being released over 20 years later) is a cowardly move. Why are you so scared of Blaze being in her mid 40's, Sega? Why does the idea of Blaze being a MILF scare you, huh? Fucking cowards...
