WayForward Technologies, best known for the old-school 2D platformer games like Shantae and Contra 4, announced a reboot of the famous classic arcade brawler, Double Dragon. Titled 'Double Dragon: Neon', the game is still a 2D side-scroller with arcade elements.

Double Dragon: Neon pits players as the familiar Lee brothers, Billy and Jimmy, as they fight to save Marian from a villain named Skullmageddon (Best. Name. Ever.) The gameplay is the same brand of 2D side-scrolling popularized by the original game several decades ago, albeit with even more of a wild, 80s flair.

As in previous Double Dragon games, the gameplay is a blend of martial arts and weapon-based combat. You'll perform combos and use weapons like baseball bats, whips, and hand grenades to take on your enemies. While the fighting system and combos aren't quite as advanced as many fighters on the market these days, the attacks were responsive. The spinning kick move, flying knee, and throws will also be in your fighting move repertoire.

The game is launching this summer on the XBLA and PSN. Check out the first game screenshots below!
