Streets of Rage 4 has hit your platform three months ago already. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35897073/2193cae37ab944293e6a038e42b7025d7f11c54d.png Streets of Rage 4 has a bright future going forward. The whole SOR4 team behind the game is working hard to make it happen.

Dear adventurers, We have now updated the PC version of the game to support Traditional Chinese!

DotEmu are taking lead, Lizardcube (Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap) are on art and relative unknowns Guard Crush Games on code. No pl
