Double Dragon Neon reimagines the beloved beat-em-up series as a love letter to the 1980s, with tons of humorous references to the time period. Does it still feel like a Double Dragon game? And is the co-op brawling as fun as it ever was? In a word, yes, dude.
Verdict
The Co-Op Experience: Two players can take on the roll of the Lee brothers, battling enemies with friendly fire enabled or disabled. Three high-five moves require cooperation to perform, allowing players to share life, buff each other, or steal life. Downed players can be revived by rewinding a floating tape (rapidly pressing a button) that floats over their bodies. A player who runs out of lives can also steal a life from the remaining player.
