Dotemu and Guard Crush Games announced today that Streets of Rage 4, the long-awaited return of SEGA’s iconic beat-em-up series, will be launching for Xbox One, Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC on April 30 for $24.99.
The news arrived alongside a trailer revealing the first look at Streets of Rage 4’s Battle Mode, a legacy experience returning from Streets of Rage 2 and 3. This feud-settling battleground is bound to help rivals recognize who truly is Wood Oak City’s finest alley-clearing ruffian, as well as settle grudges spurred by accidental friendly strikes during multiplayer sessions. Witness just a few of the ways champions will be able to dominate their allies by viewing the new trailer.
Streets of Rage 4 is the franchise’s first mainline entry in more than 25 years, reuniting Axel, Blaze, and Adam while introducing fresh fighters and combat depth, an arrestingly fluid hand-drawn art style, and an all-new scenario as well as city boroughs to crack skulls in. With an original soundtrack from Olivier Derivičre incorporating worldwide talent, including massive contributions from series composers Yūzō Koshiro and Motohiro Kawashima, Streets of Rage 4’s pairing of classic elements with distinctive modern direction makes this highly anticipated return the fight of a lifetime.
SEGA has confirmed that "Yakuza Kiwami 2" will be available on Xbox One, Windows 10 and Xbox Game Pass later this month.
Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a remake of the 2006 video game Yakuza 2, and is the series' second remake title following 2016's Yakuza Kiwami. In Yakuza Kiwami 2, an assassination threatens to erupt an all-out war between the Tojo Clan and the Omi Alliance. Kazuma Kiryu, the Dragon of Dojima, must travel to Sotenbori, Osaka in an attempt to broker peace between the rival clans, but Ryuji Goda, the Dragon of Kansai, will stop at nothing to get his war. In this world, there can only be one dragon.
Yakuza Kiwami 2 is the first Yakuza game available to Xbox One & Windows 10 players utilizing Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio's powerful Dragon Engine, which features vastly improved graphics and performance, as well as seamless transitions when entering and exiting buildings or combat. You can even take fights from the street into nearby convenience stores - just don't expect any service if you happen to trash the store. Yakuza Kiwami 2 also features a full playable side story featuring fan-favorite character Goro Majima, as well as a wealth of new substories and mini games to keep you playing for countless hours.
Developed by Yakuza Studio and published by SEGA, "Yakuza Kiwami 2" is scheduled to release on Xbox One and Windows 10 on July 30, 2020, and will be available on Xbox Game Pass at launch.

Mixtvision has announced that their highly anticipated puzzle platformer 'Minute of Islands' will begin its emotional tale on Console and PC this March.
Minute of Islands places players on a strange and beautiful archipelago. Polluted by dangerous spores, the only thing that keeps the islands safe are mysterious antennas that were built by Giants when they lived alongside people. Now, these ancient machines are failing, and the only person who can repair them is the young engineer Mo and her versatile Omni Switch tool. Driven to protect her family and friends, Mo sets out on a quest to repair the machines and save the islands. But not everything is as it seems, and the damage runs deeper than she could possibly have imagined. It's a sombre tale designed to make players examine their priorities through Mo, as she delves into her subconscious and finds that her drive and ambition are not the assets she believes them to be.
