Community Notes
This is an absolute steal at $1.99! Streets of Rage 4 is widely considered one of the best beat 'em ups ever made. The mobile port by Playdigious is excellent - they did Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap, so they know how to treat classics right.
For comparison, this same game is $24.99 on consoles. The mobile version includes all the free content updates, online multiplayer, and no freemium nonsense - just a pure one-time purchase.
What I love about this mobile version:
• Both platforms now at the same all-time low price
• Regular free updates (added online multiplayer post-launch)
• Controller support if you want the console feel
• Retro pixel filter for authenticity
• iCloud save sync between iPhone and iPad
Worth Noting
• iOS version is an App Store "Editors' Choice"
• The Mr. X Nightmare DLC ($2.99) adds Survival mode with weekly challenges - worth it if you finish the main game
• File size is 1.9GB, so make sure you have space
• Google Play Pass subscribers get the Android version for free
System Requirements (iOS)
•
OS: iOS 14.0 or later
•
Storage: 1.9 GB
•
Compatibility: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
