Streets of Rage is a classic beat 'em up video game series developed and published by Sega. It first appeared on the Sega Genesis in the early 1990s and quickly became one of the most iconic titles of its genre. Here's an overview of the series and its key features:

1. Overview
The Streets of Rage games are side-scrolling action beat 'em ups where players take on waves of enemies using a combination of martial arts, street fighting, and weapons. The series is famous for its cooperative multiplayer mode, where two players can team up to fight enemies together.

2. Story
The plot revolves around a group of ex-cops who take on a crime syndicate that has taken over a corrupt city. The main antagonist throughout the series is Mr. X, a powerful crime lord. The heroes of the game—Axel Stone, Blaze Fielding, and others—must fight their way through hordes of criminals and enemies to defeat Mr. X and restore peace to the city.

3. Key Games in the Series
Streets of Rage (1991): The original game introduced Axel Stone, Blaze Fielding, and Adam Hunter as playable characters. The game focuses on their quest to take down the corrupt syndicate run by Mr. X. It featured a simple but satisfying gameplay loop and introduced the genre to Sega's platform.

Streets of Rage 2 (1992): Considered one of the best beat 'em ups of all time, Streets of Rage 2 improved upon the original in almost every way. It introduced new characters like Max Thunder and Skate (Adam’s younger brother), enhanced graphics, and deeper combat mechanics. The game had a much more refined fighting system, with more special moves, and each character had distinct abilities.

Streets of Rage 3 (1994): The third entry added more complex story elements and introduced branching paths based on player actions. New characters, like Dr. Zan, a cyborg, were introduced, and the combat system was further refined. However, it was also more challenging and didn't receive the same level of acclaim as Streets of Rage 2.

Streets of Rage 4 (2020): After a long hiatus, the series returned with Streets of Rage 4, which was highly anticipated by fans. It maintained the core elements of the original series while introducing modern, hand-drawn animation, a deeper combat system, and an updated soundtrack. The story picks up ten years after Streets of Rage 3, with a new generation of fighters joining the returning heroes to take down the children of Mr. X, who seek to continue their father’s reign of terror.
