The story
Fifteen years have passed since the end of the nuclear war. The survivors have built colonies in various parts of the devastated world to make their homes. However, during these fifteen years, the concept of nation has been lost and the powerful who rule the colonies now control politics and make the laws.
This colony established on the coast is one of these cities, governed by some of these powerful ones: a band called Shadow Warriors. Since their rise to power, the gap between rich and poor in the colony has widened. People living in the slums struggle to get by, and there are constant rumors of mysterious disappearances.
The Brothers Leemasters of the Sosetsukenthey live in a corner of the city with their childhood friend Marian. The honest younger brother Billy and the free-spirited older brother, Jimmy. The Sosetsuken dojo they inherited ends up in the middle of the city’s evil plans, and that’s how the story begins…
The composers
RAIT: “Double Dragon came out when I was in elementary school and is a deeply memorable game for me, as I once managed to finish it with just one coin. It’s truly an honor to be involved in making the soundtrack for this new installment. You can’t wait to hear it!”
James Landino: “As a fan of the Double Dragon series and ARC SYSTEM WORKS projects, I am thrilled to be involved in the music for this game! Thank you to the development team for involving me in this exciting soundtrack!”
furans: “I can’t believe I got to be a part of making such a beautiful game! It was truly an honor.”
Kohta Takahashi: “First of all, I want to express my respect to the composer of the original game’s music, Kazunaka Yamane! Some songs have a dramatic, melodic development, while others incorporate the elegant groove of the late 80s… We’d really like to see if reinterpreting these songs in a modern sound can touch listeners. I hope you enjoy!”
Pejman Roozbeh (Funk Fiction): “Working on Double Dragon Revive was a fantastic experience and an honor. The game’s world and vibrant characters inspired me to write some very dynamic and funky songs, and I can’t wait for players to experience them!”
