Secret Base has announced the primary free content material replace for Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragon will convey survival and versus modes, on-line co-op, and new characters. The Sacred Reunion can be launched on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Change platforms on April 4.

Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragon was launched final yr. I reviewed it then, and it was… enh. It was all proper. I felt that the fight wasn’t that nice and, on the time, you couldn’t actually do a lot with the character swapping. You couldn’t tie your second character into your combo. I’m unsure how a lot has modified since then, as there have been patches to tweak the mechanics.

There are three characters being added. One has been revealed, whereas the opposite two are shadowed out. I wager one among them is Sonny Lee, the disappointing and unremarkable third Lee brother. The revealed character is Ranzou, who was a personality in each Double Dragon 3’s and in addition an unlockable combatant in Double Dragon IV. He’s a ninja who fights with shuriken and a katana (or perhaps a wakazashi).

Additionally being added is survival mode, which I assume is wave-based. There’s additionally a versus mode the place you may give your pals a savage beating. Additionally included is on-line co-op. That needs to be excellent news for folks with distant relationships, however I desire to have the ability to “playfully” punch the particular person I’m enjoying with. There will even be new upgrades.

Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragon is offered on PS4, PS5, Change, PC, and XBox. The Sacred Reunion DLC can be out there totally free on April 4.
