Arc System Works has announced that River City: Rival Showdown will be released worldwide to PS4, Switch, and PC via Steam on October 12. A re-release of the classic Nintendo 3DS sandbox brawler, this version of the game has been updated with tweaked controls, graphical upgrades, and a new online mode in the form of Double Dragon Duel 2023.

This multiplayer mode allows for players to select from a roster of characters from across several River City titles and duke it out, and that cast can be expanded by unlocking several secret characters in the core game. Additionally, the campaign now has new story events, even more paths to choose from, and multiple endings.
