At EGX 2018 we sent roving reporter Jason Coles to meet with the people behind some of the most exciting upcoming games and get us some juicy scoops. You can see the others here<\/a>, but meanwhile here’s his interview with Cyrille Imbert from the team behind Streets of Rage 4:<\/em><\/p>\n

So I am here with Cyrille Imbert From the team behind Streets of Rage 4 among other things. So, and I\u2019m sure other people have asked this, how has this happened?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well it is a combination of different factors but the main thing is the success of Wonder boy. The team specialises in retro games, we worked on Windjammers, Ys, Wonder boy, Double Dragon, and many different titles. So Wonder boy was a success for some reasons that we know, so we can reproduce those and push it further with a maybe a bigger license or a more ambitious project. I really wanted to work on a Sega licence because I was a Sega kid, so I was like okay, what can we do next. Streets of Rage instantly came to mind, it\u2019s such a cool game and I was such a fan when I was young, so we started to think about it.<\/p>\n

Then we needed the teams, so I started to talk around and when we were having a drink with the artistic director behind Wonder boy, he\u2019s a great artist, but I wasn\u2019t sure if he would be into it. He was like \u201cWhat really, you want to do that?\u201d and I was \u201cYeah I just didn\u2019t know if you be down for it\u201d but he was down so I was like yeah let\u2019s work on that. A week later he sent me some drafts of Axel and Blaze and I thought it was super badass so I just said okay, let\u2019s do it. Then we needed to find another team for the programming and game design and our game designer has another game company who have been working for ten years on a beat \u2018em up. It is a small but very active community so they have been constantly improving their beat \u2018em up all the time. It\u2019s not the prettiest thing but it is great in terms of gameplay and in terms of features and everything. So they know everything about beat \u2018em ups, he said that yeah they are free and would be super down to work on Streets of Rage. So that was a great fit, we talked about it together and decided to talk go to Japan and see what they think. We made a whole presentation with the whole concept and our vision and everything and they liked it right away. So after we started discuss and everything and then it was real. So yeah, that\u2019s really how it happened.<\/p>\n

So what was the immediate feeling of you and your team after the internet lost its head after the announcement?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ecstasy? It was really nice, I wasn\u2019t expecting that much enthusiasm around the game I know it’s a big game and I am a huge fan so I would have gone crazy if it wasn\u2019t me doing it, but I was not expecting that much. It is great it means that there\u2019s a whole community behind it, a lot of people expecting great things. So it really motivates us to go even further, to really do our best and deliver something that as fans we would want to so, but also as people from the industry see what we would like to bring to the series as a modern game. So it is super exciting, it puts a bit of pressure on us but a very positive one.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve used the same art style as in Wonder Boy, why this art style and not something like pixel art?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So, basically it doesn\u2019t really matter. What matters most is the team behind it and the talent. One of the things we learned at DotEmu is that the project that works is the project with the passionate people behind it. Otherwise when you work on retro games or an old licence it won\u2019t really work or it won\u2019t work at all. So you need to have passionate people that know the game by heart, and these are those type of people. They know Streets of Rage and they\u2019re passionate about it, plus he\u2019s a great artist. The animation he does he is insane, you saw it in Wonder Boy. So that\u2019s it, we didn\u2019t think that we would go for pixel art or HD or whatever, we think about who has the passion, and that\u2019s it. He could have been a great pixel artist and we would have done pixel art, we didn\u2019t do a study to say that HD would get the best reaction so we went with that, it doesn\u2019t matter. As long as it\u2019s beautiful and it\u2019s super cool to play that\u2019s the important thing.<\/p>\n

So far we have Axel and Blaze but will there be other characters?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So, in every aspect of the game we try to balance between legacy, what makes the game so good, and modernity, what will make Streets of Rage 4 a good game, what new things can we bring to it that both old fans and new gamers will like. So we do that in every aspect of the game and we do that in both character design and characters, that\u2019s the only thing I can say.<\/p>\n

In the first Streets of Rage you could call in a police car, in the subsequent games you have special attacks. Which one are you going for?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Right now we have already integrated special moves. We can\u2019t say for certain what will or won\u2019t be there, but I can say that the game designer is a semi-pro player of Street Fighter 3rd Strike so he has a good idea of bare knuckle fighting and how it should feel and the mechanics behind it. We don\u2019t want to make a fighting game, it\u2019s a beat \u2018em up so it needs to be simple, but we feel we can add more depth too the game to make it more interesting and give more options and strategies. Again, it is a mix between legacy and modernity, you\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n

So does that mean that there\u2019s a chance that there will be a command list for the characters?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Potentially, I don\u2019t know if the game designer\u2019s idea is to make it that complicated. That\u2019s not the idea for now, unless we find something really cool to do. But we don\u2019t want to make a fighting game, we want to make a beat \u2018em up, simple.<\/p>\n

Will there be both online and offline co-op?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes of course there will be co-op for sure. Without online co-op it would be a shame, so yeah.<\/p>\n

One of the things that defines Streets of Rage for a lot of people are the stranger fights like the kangaroo, have you got some more crazy fights planned?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes of course, the Streets of Rage universe is super crazy. It just doesn\u2019t make sense, so we are totally into it. We aren\u2019t trying to be super serious, it\u2019s not what we are going for. So it is a mix of fun and just crazy action.<\/p>\n

Going back to the art style for a second, Axel has a beard now, does this mean that this game is a sequel rather than anything else?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes absolutely.<\/p>\n

In which case will we be seeing other enemies returning from previous entries?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n

Who did you used to play in Streets of Rage?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blaze mostly.<\/p>\n

I used to love skate.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was always more of a skateboard guy, so roller blades were never for me. But I know a lot of people love that character but I never really got it, I mean Blaze is so much cooler. We do know he\u2019s a very important character, so we can see what we do with that.<\/p>\n

Which of the original three games is your favourite?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The second one definitely, the music, the gameplay, the general flow.<\/p>\n

Will you be having the same composer as the original games?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So the music is one of the most important parts of Streets of Rage 4, probably the second pillar after the gameplay. So it is super important for us, we are talking to a lot of very talented people, I won\u2019t say names because we want to keep it a surprise so that people get really excited when we announce it. Again, we want to keep the legacy while bringing something new. So we want to keep the spirit and the way it was approached at the time but we want it to be a modern game, otherwise it wouldn\u2019t make sense to be a sequel, we would just do a remake.<\/p>\n

Will you be looking to go above two player co-op?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes that is definitely something that we would like to see. I can\u2019t confirm it one hundred percent, but it would make sense.<\/p>\n

Last question, what other properties, if your dreams came true, what other properties would you like to work on?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Golden Axe would be nice, Outrun would be really nice as well. I have crazy ideas for those.<\/p>\n

Cool, thank you very much anything else?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nope.<\/p>\n
