6Played by Dimmetria and Nikaido.
Streets of Rage 2 is the sequel to the original Streets of Rage game, released in 1992 for the Sega Genesis console. Like its predecessor, the game is a side-scrolling beat 'em up, but it builds upon the foundation of the first game with improved graphics, more playable characters, and additional gameplay features.
The game's story takes place one year after the events of the first game, and once again follows the heroes Axel Stone and Blaze Fielding, as well as new allies Max Thunder and Eddie "Skate" Hunter. The quartet takes on the new crime syndicate led by the villainous Mr. X, who is once again threatening the city.
Streets of Rage 2 features ten levels, each with its unique enemies, bosses, and background music. The game also introduces a new special move system, allowing players to execute more complex and powerful attacks by inputting specific button combinations.
One of the most significant additions to Streets of Rage 2 is the ability to play as multiple characters, each with their unique moves and attributes. Players can choose from the four heroes, each with their unique strengths and weaknesses, giving the game added replay value and strategic depth.
The game's soundtrack, composed once again by Yuzo Koshiro, is considered one of the best of the 16-bit era and is widely regarded as a masterpiece of video game music. Koshiro used cutting-edge electronic dance music techniques to create a soundtrack that perfectly complements the game's action and atmosphere.
Streets of Rage 2 was widely praised upon its release, with critics lauding its improved graphics, gameplay, and sound. The game was successful enough to spawn a third sequel, but many fans consider Streets of Rage 2 to be the pinnacle of the series.
The game has since been re-released on numerous platforms, including the Wii Virtual Console, Xbox Live Arcade, and most recently, as part of the Sega Genesis Mini console. It has also inspired a loyal fan following and continues to be celebrated as one of the best beat 'em ups of all time.
