Fight ‘n Rage

The success of Castle Crashers in 2008 spurred a small resurrection of the arcade beat-em-up genre, but few pay such tribute to the glory days of the 90s as Seba Games Dev’s Fight ‘n Rage. The most obvious homage is the title, an amalgamation of Final Fight and Streets of Rage, but the ethos goes far beyond just the title.

New titles in the scrolling beat'em up / brawler genre aren't that common these days. Fight'N Rage arrived on PC back in 2017 and has been steadily ported to all the current consoles. It's clearly a loving homage to all the classic 90's scrolling beat'em ups, including a few well placed nods fans will no doubt spot to titles like Konami's TNMT arcade.

Well paced stages packed full of enemies, faultless collision, mixed in with an excellent combo system make this a hugely enjoyable title. Fight'N Rage includes some great pixel art, that reminds us a lot of the 32 bit era art seen on Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation and the music has a great rock and roll soundtrack to go with it.

Supporting up to three players on one system, this is a great title for when you have friends round. Its only real flaw really is a lack of a online mode, other than that this is a must buy for anyone who enjoys the genre. One thing we do recommend is turning off the default retro style graphic filters.
