Rage of the Dragons NEO Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
While Rage of the Dragons NEO packs a steep learning curve, this fighter greatly rewards those that put in the effort. The team at QUByte Interactive gave plenty of love to Rage of the Dragons NEO, making it the definitive way to play this cult classic.
The exploits of Billy Lee and Jimmy Lee are well known in the coin-op community as Double Dragon. With several games within the franchise that featured these two martial arts masters, a fighting game would probably be something to expect. No, we're not talking about the 1995 Neo Geo game…
With heavily details stages, slick animations, and a host of intentionally familiar characters, Rage of Dragons became a bit of a cult hit, especially as it originally started out as a new entry in the Double Dragon series.
Rage of the Dragon NEO is a challenging arcade-style fighting game that boasts a roster of unique fighters. With no crossplay option, online battles are hard to find.
So, where do we end up with this game? Rage of the Dragons NEO is a niche within a niche, an odd game with an odd history that appeals to an extremely specific kind of audience. That’s tough for any game, but especially a fighting game that has to compete with the likes of Street Fighter and Guilty Gear. Not having cross-platform play is an additional barrier that seems to already be making online an actual ghost town. That’s unfortunate. But if you’re interested in gaming history, fighting games, and the weird intersections thereof, Rage of the Dragons NEO is really cool. I can see it coming ...
