Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons is a dynamic side-scrolling action brawler that brings the iconic Billy and Jimmy Lee back into action, joined by new allies to combat the criminal underworld of New York City. Players can unleash devastating combos and special moves as they fight their way through the city, with unique playable characters and unlockable upgrades. In a fresh twist on the classic formula, players can select up to two characters to form a tag team for cooperative play.

Meet the New Fighters

JEFF
A childhood rival of the Lee brothers, Jeff trained alongside them in the martial art Sōsetsuken. But as his skills lagged behind, jealousy grew. Determined to surpass Billy and Jimmy, Jeff abandoned his noble path and embraced the streets, merging Karate with Sōsetsuken to develop a dangerous, unpredictable fighting style.

ABORE

A massive ex-soldier with a stoic demeanor, Abore fights with raw power and unwavering calm. His incredible strength and resilience have led some to wonder: is he a man, or something more? The quiet brawler offers no answers, only crushing blows.

Key Features:

  • Seamless, fast-paced tag-team action.
  • A wide array of devastating combos and special moves across more than a dozen unique playable characters.
  • Two-player local co-op that multiplies the action with a friend.
