How co-op works
Two players take Billy and Jimmy through the campaign, using high-fives to equalize health, trigger attack buffs, or fake out a partner and reviving each other when downed. Each equips and upgrades separate mixtapes that provide special attacks and passive stat effects.
About this game
Double Dragon Neon brings Billy and Jimmy Lee back for a creative take on the arcade beat 'em up, drenched in neon nostalgia and tongue-in-cheek 80s homage. This is true cooperative brawling where two players fight side-by-side through the same campaign, rescuing Marian from endless waves of goons, including infamous enemies like Linda and Abobo. The action is built for teamwork from the ground up.

Players pummel their way through streets and stages using martial arts combos, collectible mixtapes that unlock special moves, and high-five mechanics that restore health and buff your partner. The tape system adds a layer of customization to your brawler, letting you mix abilities and power-ups as you progress. Coordinating attacks and reviving each other keeps the rhythm fast and satisfying.
Local couch co-op is the heart of the experience, with single-screen and split-screen support plus Steam Remote Play Together for online sessions. Every run leans into goofy, over-the-top humor and arcade pacing, making it a great pick for quick bursts or longer brawling marathons with a friend.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I play Double Dragon Neon online with a friend?
Yes, through Steam Remote Play Together. The game natively supports local co-op (single-screen and split-screen), but you can use Steam's Remote Play Together feature to play online with a friend who doesn't own the game.
Does co-op work differently from solo play?
Co-op is the core experience. Both players fight through the same campaign side-by-side, with mechanics built for teamwork like high-fiving to restore health and buff your partner, coordinating attacks, and reviving each other when downed.
What are the mixtapes and how do they work?
Mixtapes are collectibles you find as you progress that unlock special moves and power-ups. You can mix and match them to customize your brawler's abilities, adding a layer of strategy to your beat 'em up build.
Is this a remaster or remake of the original Double Dragon?
It's a creative reimagining with a totally different tone-heavy on neon aesthetics, 80s nostalgia, and goofy humor. You'll fight classic enemies like Abobo and Linda, but the gameplay, art style, and over-the-top presentation are all fresh takes on the franchise.
