Streets of Rage 4 Trophy List Hints at the Reappearance of an Old Friend

The latest Streets of Rage game is on the horizon, and the fact that it is multiplatform means that the different trophies you can earn might reveal secrets about the title. Now that the Streets of Rage 4 trophy list has appeared on Exophase, details about bosses and people we’ll meet are here. One of them is an old friend people haven’t seen since Streets of Rage 2.

Editor’s Note: There will be Streets of Rage 4 spoilers below.

Based on the Streets of Rage 4 trophy list, it seems Streets of Rage 2’s Max will be again making a cameo in the game. This time, it seems like he’ll only be a boss. The trophy associated with him is a silver one called “Snap Out of It.” Its description specifically states, “Beat possessed Max.” However, this reduced role wouldn’t be unusual for him, as Max was only playable in the second game and only briefly appeared in Streets of Rage 3 as an unplayable character.
