The long-awaited survival mode arrives on Streets of Rage 4: Mr. X Nightmare DLC this July 15, 2021.

Streets of Rage 4: Mr. X Nightmare DLC Trailer:

Streets of Rage 4 is an arcade beat 'em up developed by Dotemu, Lizardcube, and Guard Crush Games.

The trailer for the games' latest DLC has just been released. DotEmu's Streets of Rage 4's: Mr. X Nightmare DLC comes with all new characters, new weapons, and the glorious survival mode.

In a recent blog post from PlayStation, Crush Guard Games' Jordi Asensio was able to give us more details about the game.

“We always wanted a Survival mode for Streets of Rage 4, but we decided to focus on the campaign first so as not to sidetrack production. It was a tough decision, but we knew it was the right one.” Asensio says.

Survival mode is finally here!

The new DLC also brings two variants on Survival Mode. “Random” Survival Mode keeps fights unpredictable with each run. “Weekly” Survival Mode, on the other hand, is a series of static gauntlets that spawn each week

Characters included in the DLC are Estel Aguirre, Max Thunder, and Shiva. DoteEmu also added several new weapons with one looking like an elegant weapon… For a more civilized age. (please tell me you got that reference)

The new trailer shows the new DLC in all its glory. From the new weapons being used to crush skulls, to the new characters kicking major buttocks. Enemies from the older games will be making an appearance as well, along with new arenas for you to punish them in. 

Although it's been a year since the game has been released, there's no doubt that the hype will die anytime soon. Streets of Rage 4; Mr. X Nightmare DLC is available on Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, macOS, and Linux with a Stadia version releasing in July 15, 2021.
