Der Reboot der bekannten Beat-em-Up-Serie Double Dragon Neon wird nach PS3, Xbox 360 und dem PC auch noch die Nintendo Switch beehren. Wie Gematsu.com berichtet, soll die Umsetzung von Majesco Entertainment und Entwickler WayForward am 21. Dezember erscheinen.

Der erhoffte Prügelspaß für zwei Spieler konnte uns aufgrund der trägen Steuerung im Jahr 2012 nicht ganz überzeugen: „Passabler Rückkehr zu alten Prügler-Werten – die auch frustrierendes Design und träge Steuerung beinhalten (4Players-Wertung: 53 %).“

„Bro-tacular!

Legendary martial artists, Billy and Jimmy Lee return in this creative re-imagining of the classic beat ‘em up, Double Dragon Neon.
