The side-scrolling beat ’em up, Double Dragon: Neon, is now available on the PlayStation Network for $9.99 and on Xbox LIVE Arcade for the Xbox 360 for 800 Microsoft Points. As an added bonus, Playstation Plus members can get Double Dragon Neon for free now thru January.

In Double Dragon Neon, Billy and Jimmy are back in action as they return to the streets to save their shared love interest Marian from a new foe, Skullmageddeon. Players can pair up with their pals for local “bro-op” play, all while kneeing, punching, and high-fiving their way through new hyper-saturated worlds designed to take players from the mean streets to robo-riddled outer space. Billy and Jimmy aren’t alone, as long-standing foes Williams, Linda, and even the brick-busting Abobo try and stop them. Through the powers of magical mix-tapes (and the occasional high-five), the Sōsetsuken fighting-style masters are well equipped to crush any street scum in their path.

Double Dragon Neon’s gameplay is coupled with a radical new art direction pulled directly from the 1980s, in an acid-washed, electrical, over-the-top celebration of that decade’s aesthetics.
