Is Return of Double Dragon still worth playing in 2026?
Return of Double Dragon is the Japanese version of Super Double Dragon, more complete and better finished than its Western counterpart, sometimes cut at release. Billy and Jimmy Lee chain varied striking techniques through urban stages, with richer handling than the NES entries. Period stiffness and uneven pacing betray its age, but the joy of brawling endures, especially in two-player. For fans of retro beat-em-ups, it is a choice version well worth discovering today.
