After 20 years, Double Dragon Advance and Super Double Dragon are making a double comeback to modern consoles.

For over three decades, the classic beat-em-up action games Double Dragon Advance and Super Double Dragon have been hailed as the epitome of action games.

Originally published on Game Boy Advance and now making its way to modern consoles, Double Dragon Advance is a remake/expansion of the 1987 arcade game Double Dragon that incorporates elements from its sequels and home versions. Players take the roles of protagonists Billy Lee and his brother Jimmy as they must master their martial arts skills in the fight against the Black Shadow Warriors to save BIlly’s girlfriend and martial arts student, Marian.


Super Double Dragon was originally released for Super Nintendo as the fourth installment in the series. Players on modern consoles will see Billy Lee and Jimmy return in a wild new adventure that takes players through city streets, jungles, and temples in the quest to once again save Marian (now a policewoman), who has been kidnapped while investigating the criminal group known as the Black Shadow Warriors.


In addition, both games will be repackaged and sold together with 4 other of the Double Dragon series as a Nintendo Switch physical box package, the Double Dragon Collection.

Fans can buy the 6-in-1 Double Dragon Collection physical box for Nintendo Switch containing the following classics: Double Dragon, Double Dragon II: The Revenge, Double Dragon III: The Sacred Stones (all in English version), as well as the currently available Double Dragon IV.

Double Dragon Advance and Super Double Dragon will available for Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam) on November 9th, 2023 at $9.99 (each sold separately)
