I have to do my part and pay homage to River City Ransom: Underground, one of the most fun beat-em-ups I've ever played, and I see people talk so little about it. It's got a great pixel art-style, an amazing retro soundtrack and a fun and deep combat system to master, where you pick and level up different fighters in an open-world story driven beat-em-up. Shout outs to anyone who's experienced this great game.
Any time I never know what I want to play this dude comes out with another kick-ass list! Keep up the awesome work brother because you are the indie game review guru!
That's the idea!
Fight N Rage is amazing. It is a must buy.
agreed
indeed, im playing it right now.
well....near to middle game become real pain in ass with tons of enemyes...i droped..too hard even in medium dificulty
I mean one of the main characters name is FuuCk Norris. Nothing’s more badass than that.
@@IrinaSwat it's a hard game but it becomes much more manageable when you learn how to abuse the invincible throws and time your party. Also it's very fun with a friend
Love streets of rage games, grew up playing those, the remake/remaster for 4 is great.
When it comes to Beat-em-ups, my gig has always been Little Fighter 2. Have yet to find any other game like it.
I remember that!
Love your videos! Found so many great games that would have been lost if not for your videos! Thank you! Maybe one day the game I'm working on will be featured. The dream 😊
Awesome list man. Really cool games featured here!
Glad you enjoyed!
probably my 3rd fav video from my channel so far.
Thanks!
Great list! Thanks
Mayhem Brawler could have been in a better place but still deserves a like! MB's definitely a must buy though.
Good game
Thank you for this list , recently I played 99 Vidas Game and I enjoyed so much and had a lot of fun . I will try these other titles 🙂 👍🏻
great list!
Great list. I was actually just looking for some beatem ups.
Happy this is helpful!
Im so glad you put Fight N Rage on this list. I hadent played a beatem up in a while before i found this gem a couple years ago and I no lifed it for a while. I haven't played it on switch but I own it. I will buy every version of the game i can to support Sebagames. Also the soundtrack done but 1 other guy is perfect.
Fight n rage is my number one spot. It is full of surprises and the core gameplay is so fun
good game!
Fight N Raaaaaage....best beat em up ever maaaaade
it's good!
Thank GOD. I don't know why they stopped making these.
Beautiful video.
YEY !!! thanks for the List
You're welcome!
Thanks to this Vid I'll check out the great ones I missed!
Good!
For me fight n rage beats SoR by far. The battle system is so much more flexible and frantic. I'm surprised river city ransom underground didn't make the list, another underappreciated masterpiece
Love the control scheme in that
I wish fight n rage had online mp
So glad someone pointed this out I’ve always liked Fight n Rage the most cuz of how fluid it is
You must not have played much of Streets of Rage 4 then. It's far more deep, flexible and smooth.
@@withoutthejuice7193Nah, Streets of Rage 4 is the current GOAT.
Dragon Crown is main reason that I still have PS4, fantastic beat-em up game
your channel is great i love your videos
I love Beat em Up , this Fight Rage game is excellent one of the best Beat em Up games today.
Phantom Breaker looks awesome, especially comb-system and pic-n-mix 10 different characters. Shame it's only 2 lanes/planes of movement to hop between though. Up to 4P is a very welcome tough however!
The Friends of Ringo Ishekawa also the dev of "Fading Afternoon" is wonderful pixel art beat'em-up/life-sim/slice-of-life. The dev pours their heart into these titles and you can see the "love": It's got that combo of "ultra-violence + melancholy of life" vibe!
River City Girls: Some great pixel art animation around!
Castle-Crashers is probably one of the best games ever and top picks in this genre. There's so many fun ideas in it.
Midnight Fight Express looks so fun and playable - The Warriors the game sorta feel.
Fight N Rage looks like it's on some seriously strong stuff! Incredible look.
It's great!
Well made video
thank you I really love all the games you recommended.
I wish EA made a remaster or something of "DEF Jam Fight for NY"
it's such a great game...
You could had the AMAZING Scott Pilgrim vs the world, recently available after years missing \o/ Pretty neat list btw !
Love the list
thanks!
Good list, but I would personally add Scot Pilgrim vs the World and Castle Crasher here.
Castle Crashers is on the list...
Great list! It's missing Jitsu Squad though. But you perhaps see it more as a Hack'N Slash since it's weapon based?
Lost Castle is on sale for $4 on Steam for the rest of the week! I just picked up the deluxe edition today for $7! I have about 5 games on this list and the ones I don't are on wish till they go on sale. Great list!
Cheers
I really hope more Good Beat Em Ups are made over the years. Own and have played everything on the list and most everything even in the steak category. I have my eyes on one in the far distant horizon, but it could be more than decade before that one happens.
Always new ones in development!
Full metal furies is actually so fun with friends. We had a blast
excellent
Honorable mention would be Streets of Red double dare deluxe. It was a fantastic beatemgame experience with many references to other games and media, plus the journey towards the platinum trophy was quite enjoyable
considered that for the list!
@@ClemmyGames Awesome! Love ur vids, keep up the good work!
thank you bro for information indie game
Any time
@@ClemmyGames i will subscribe for more info, salam dari gamers indo
I would recommend "Jitsu Squad" as another awesome modern beat 'em up.
You should add Jitsu Squad
I was hoping to see sifu on the list, it's not an arcade game but wow does it deliver the action and challenge.
I like the rankings
I wish I could time travel summon young me who absolutely loved beat-em-ups but could only ever play a round or two on the arcades - imagine having dozens of indie games available!!
It's a great time to love games!
Thanks for giving mother Russia bleeds a shout out.
Always!
@@ClemmyGames Clemmie regards to mother Russia bleeds is there any chance it could be made for Xbox as well ? Or does that never happen with games ?

The friends of Ringo ishikawa is literally the joke from Rick and Morty where it's street fighter but you go through their whole day first😂
Beat'em Up ❤
Street of Rage 4 is the top game on many lists, it must be really good.
The only beat em up game i ever liked was URBAN REIGN, the 2003 PS2 exclusive title.. Very few know this game coz it was an exclusive, i still hate that this game didn't got its 2nd part
never heard of it
@@ClemmyGames search about it, the game mechanics was the best out there with 4 player support.. It was amazing
Hey, the top three is the same as mine! Well, except I would probably have Ninja Warriors in place of Shredder's Revenge.
hmm
No Scott Pilgrim?
As soon as I saw The Takeover I thought it looked like they wanted to model it after Streets of Rage, but with a different kind of graphics.
I had to get Streets of Rage 4. I just have too many memories of playing Streets of Rage 2 with my brothers back in the day. Of course, I also have Fight N Rage, but I haven't played it enough to get good at it yet.
👊 SoR 2
I'd like to point out since they didn't. Charlie murder is made by Ska studio the one who made Salt and sanctuary/sacrifice and those games are quality as hell
good games
Wardogs: Red’s Return is a fun beat em up that’s short and easy. Cheap too.
the takeover has 2 attacks,various cool grabs n throws .. and can collect bullets to shoot enemies in a freakin face !
Mmhmm
11:27 that's good but you forgot one platform and it is the mobile one
thanks
You welcome
Everyone should try jitsu squad. It came out a couple months ago and it’s a blast. Don’t see it talked about often.
Is it available on xbox ?
Great video! My top 5 Beat-em-ups are:
1. TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge
2. Batman Returns (SNES)
3. Streets of Rage 4
4. Final Fight
5. The Takeover
Gotta be honest, i had one on sega and it was fun but thats it. Never really got into them but always wanted to.
Gotta check some of these out.
Sadly none of my friends like these games
Try some!
@@ClemmyGames i will :)
SoR 4 and TMNT are my faves. Got into River City girls but a little put down by the boss difficulty progression.
Thanks for sharing
SoR4 has way harder bosses though???
@@JayceCH. I think the difficulty progression and balance between and boss fights in SOR4 is much more balanced. It doesn't feel like a jump in it
Cool games
Thanks
There are Cobra kai the karate kid saga continues, Asterix and Obelix slap them all, Wulverblade and Jitsu squad !
some fun ones as well
Phantom Breaker looks a lot like the Scott Pilgrim video game.
🤔
beatm up Batman game would be sick
Ha, I was just thinking about mother russia bleeds just before I started watching this 🤣. Awesome list by the way!
nice
Waiting the ninja saviors returns go to steam jaja
TMNT Shredders revenge is a game made by the fans for the fans.
Mmhmm
I wish there were more 3d beat em ups
Mmhmm
#14 Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds looks like a fun little game. Like if Isekai Quartet or one of those rom com animes involving magical girls got the Scott Pilgrim treatment.
#5 I am intrigued by Full Metal Furies. It's a beat em' up with Greek mythology, noticeable rpg elements (not just leveling up), and the gameplay actually seems different per class/character. Wonder if they'll meet up with the Full Metal Alchemist and get the Sniper some Full Metal Jackets.
#2 Fight N' Rage seems a little goofy. The Female's name is Gal? To be fair, Gal is a name. Gal Gadot for example.
any good beat em up games with good stories?
Missing Golden Axe 😢 wish they remake it like sor 4
SOR4 is on mobile as well.
thanks
If you like Lost Castle check out Rampage Knights. Awesome game.
good one
No Scott Pilgrim? I´m shocked! D:
Which of those have ai controlled companions to fight alongside you ?
The Friends of Ringo Ishekawa ?
Great list. Can't argue with it. You're the hardest working man on RUclips! Great content
I appreciate that!
What game is the thumbnail from?
fight n rage
Why the hell hasnt someone made an indie game version of dragon's crown. Qq. Also, I like Fight N Rage, but gal has to do like 3x the inputs per second as the other two just to do as well, then you get carpel tunnel =p
I join the fray... I would prefer Vanillaware to do a soft upgrade of DC like they did with Odin Sphere Leifthrasir
@@Leynx-Et-Fenrir or just port it to pc... mmm. I will accept any and all of those options.
PC version would be nice
@@ClemmyGames In a better future, if and when it gets ported to pc, and we have a giant dragon's crown party, I call elf =P
I'm nostalgic for Turtles and a bit later Street of Rage
For sure
The game name plague obscures the the game screen. Put it upwards.
Is Fight'N Rage made by Team Ninja, or ex Team Ninja employees?
Because they're certainly using Team Ninja's "physics" system in their character sprites. 🤣
lol, no I don't think so
How did you forget about Jitsu Squad?!?
Double Dragon Neon is missing
we gonna act like Take over isn't RE and that's Leon
No Scott Pilgrim? Does not compute.
DO any of you guts know this game with a muscula girl police officer?
Streets of rage 4
I tought that the genre had evolved over the decades. Except 9 monkey everything else looks still bound to mechanics 80-90s. I'd dare say, the evolution of the genre went on with the likes of DMC and Bayonetta.But I was really looking forward for something from the past with modern mechanics and visuals.
Streets of Rage 4 plays far more smoother than the previous games and has a far more advanced combat system. I'd say that's a good continuation. Many of the other games are just too retro for my liking.
I really wish we'd get more 3d beat em ups
there's plenty of 3ds out there... 2d is more fun & cartoonish, less stressful
Sifu got a Steam release recently.
Musou/ dynasty warriors games
@GamerMc-ey4iy much less like those and more like judgment, sifu, god hand, etc
@@ShinPepsiman character/stylish Action games?, You mentioned god hand, so devil may cry, bayonetta, ninja gaiden etc, try those
thx for vid
ps streets of rage remake
Wonder what they do with that IP from here
💡
no love for scott pilgrim?
ehhhh
Fuckin love mother russia, its amazing how midnight Fight got those same cool fibes
Hell yeah
you missed jitsu squad
Scott Piligrim?
Jitsu Squad? what happened here ???
👍
good
charlie murder top 5
nice pick
thumbnail games?
Fight n rage
@@ClemmyGames oh my how did i miss that, Thx! 😂
No Final Vendetta :/
The best modern beat em up I ever played must be an Android/IOS game Hero Fighter X
Thanks for not putting Castle Crashers in the top 5, this game is incredibly weak for the reception it has had.
It's historically significant but there are better games not for sure
@@ClemmyGames I agree that it's relevant to the revive of the genre and indie games in general, but aside from The Behemoth's iconic visual style, it has nothing going for it, most games in top 15 to 7 are better to play than it.
So annoyed mother Russia bleeds isent available for Xbox 😡
your voice is weird
Streets of rage 4 is so overrated....
:o
no
Streets Of Rage 4 is the best beat em up out there I have Streets Of Rage,Streets Of Rage 2,Streets Of Rage 3,Streets Of Rage 4 for my Xbox Series X and they are some of my most played games in my game library and I have alot of games but the Streets of rage games are just so much fun to play😁
I am just not a fan of that art style. Im more in to pixel graphics... beatemups like mother russia bleeds or fight'n'rage. that said i rely like old streets of rage!
Bruh forget about the visuals for a second and just look at that gameplay
