"Double Dragon: Neon" Just Dropped on Steam (Video)

The defenders of ladies who get punched in the stomach have returned!

Double Dragon: Neon has gut punched and jump-kicked its way onto Steam today and is now available for Windows PC for 10 bucks.

Check out the 1990s flashback commercial above to when games were totally awesome and you could still buy the Ninja Turtles Pizza thrower with the – now banned – metal discs. Oh what a beautiful over-sugared world of day glow neon half-shirts it was.

Double Dragon: Neon is already out for consoles but now the PC version sports full integration and an online cooperative play to boot. After all, a true dude would never high-five himself! Billy and Jimmy Lee are back in this updated reboot on the classic side-scrolling beat-em-up to take on the Shadow Warriors gang to win back the gut-punched love interest Marian.

The reboot features some new features building on the classic like power-ups,special moves and even reviving a fallen partner. Players can high-five to share health and get wicked psyched to complete those special moves. If you're not ready to dive into the “radicool” world of Double Dragon just yet then start out by listening to the free soundtrack here.

Check out Double Dragon: Neon now out for PC on Steam and a little treat from the 1990s console wars below. Sega trying to stick it to Nintendo. Who go the last laugh?
