What’s old is once more new again, as City Connection is bringing the Rushing Beat series back from the dead. The classic beat ‘em up franchise will return with Rushing Beat X: Return of Brawl Brothers.
If you haven’t heard of this series before, it’s because it was called Rival Turf here.
“Armed with a new fighting system allowing for a greater range of attack strategies and techniques, RUSHING BEAT X: Return of Brawl Brothers sees up to six playable characters take to the mean streets of Neo-Cisco as they battle to uncover the secrets of the odious Zeekus virus, and fight to discover what occurred on the mysterious island found floating above Neo-Cisco bay.”
“The Neo-Cisco heroes Rick Norton and Douglas Bild return to settle some scores, joined by new character Kahlua, a trainee working at Rick’s gym. More character details will be announced in due course, but gamers will have a huge array of new weapons, moves and skills at their disposal in this new instalment of the much-loved fighting franchise. Launch an aerial combo to clear the ground of enemies, throw your opponent to clear the path ahead, or activate Rage Mode if you take too much damage, giving you a brief burst of over-the-top power to even the odds!”
Rushing Beat X: Return of Brawl Brothers is expected to be released in 2024.
