Neo-Cisco has been shaken by organized criminal activity, a deadly virus, and more—each time justice and order prevailed thanks to a small group of brave fighters. Now, they must rise again to confront overwhelming evil and uncover the true mastermind behind these past events.
Jaleco’s Rushing Beat returns with a cocktail of beat ’em up action featuring new moves, new weapons, and new allies, plus a thrilling two-player co-op story with twice the impact!
Action
With easy-to-use auto-combos, even beginners can enjoy exhilarating action. Chain your own combos using various actions like counters, follow-up strikes, and weapon attacks. Most actions can be canceled with dashes or jumps. Master the cancel system to unleash even more consecutive attacks!
Tossing techniques vary through button commands. Launch target enemies airborne—if thrown into the background, you can destroy normally unreachable objects for item collection opportunities!
Successfully landing hits or taking damage fills your Rage Gauge. At MAX level, enter Rage Mode for enhanced attack/defense capabilities plus access to the “Beat Rush” finishing blow. Overcome evil with righteous fury!
