There are a number of combo moves you can pull off, and everything feels satisfying. The game has dedicated buttons for grabbing, kicking, punchings, running, and ducking, as well as special moves that you can use. Now released on Nintendo Switch, you can play it at home or on the go and see for yourself why this game stands out.ĭouble Dragon Neon is a truly excellent brawler, with a detailed combat system. Developed by WayForward Technologies and published by Majesco, Double Dragon Neon is half over the top parody, half loving tribute to the ’80s classics.
However, there was a follow-up to the series that was well regarded by fans and critics alike in the form of Double Dragon Neon. While there were high points like the N eo Geo arcade fighting game, most of us were rather disappointed with Double Dragon IV ( released years after V). Super Double Dragon was just okay, and Double Dragon V was a poor fighting game. As gamers, we came to love its follow-up entries Double Dragon II and III, but many of us were disappointed in later installments.
It may not have been the first beat em up, but it was the one that got things so right. Double Dragon is an iconic game, ushering in our love for the beat em up genre like nothing before it.
