Double Dragon Revive provides a modern belt-scroll action experience with exhilarating gameplay making full use of Arc System Works’ experience with fighting game development.

The Double Dragon series has defined the belt-scroll action genre ever since it hit the arcades in 1987. Now it returns as Double Dragon Revive, thanks to the passionate support of retro game fans over the years!

See your favorites from the golden age of arcades recreated in modern 3D graphics. Powerful foes from their past return to face off against the Lee brothers.

The player traverses the screen horizontally to take down enemies in this beloved genre. Supervised by staff with experience on Arc System Works fighting game titles. Experience the core belt-scroll action gameplay, with controls and balance refined for the modern era.


View the just-released trailer above offering fans a look at Double Dragon Revive’s stages and each of the character’s action-packed moves, including new ones such as Basic Attack, Grab, Hyper Blow, Mid-Air Hyper Blow, and Finishing Blow. During Tokyo Game Show, fans will have hands-on playtime with the highly anticipated title at Arc System Works’ Booth 08-C10. Gain an upper-hand on enemies in battle with Critical Assaults. Also on-site, earn a free specially-designed button by answering survey questions via a QR code at the booth! During each day of the Tokyo Game Show, there will be stage events tied to the game.

For the first time ever, voice actors will lend their incredible talents and add a new layer of depth to the game’s beloved characters. Jack Dillon and Robbie Daymond will bring life to heroes Billy and Jimmy Lee, respectively. Roper and Abobo will also be voiced by Elliot Knight and Isaac C Singleton Jr.

Beyond the beloved brother duo, Double Dragon Revive will feature four new enemy types, each with their own unique voice: Williams (Adin Rudd), Joji (Brent Mukai), Ahn (Rebecca Wang), and Mihn (Taylor Harvey).

The combat requires adaptation and variety, more than a simple button-masher. Delve into the strategy by learning enemy patterns and finding the most effective attack timings. Picking up weapons scattered throughout the stages and using the area gimmicks feels intuitive even for new players.

Double Dragon Revive is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam) in 2025.
