streets of rage 4 rooLast year we saw the release of the 4th entry of the decades-long-running franchise, Streets of Rage 4, and one of the greatest successes of Streets of Rage 4 is its playability. Not only the game mechanics but also the contrast between the four protagonists of the game. Or, rather, the initial personals. Learn How to Unlock Roo in Streets of Rage down below.

The beat'em up of SEGA and DotEmu gives us the possibility of unlocking up to thirteen additional characters, so that not only will we see the return of veteran Adam Hunter, but we will also be able to distribute street justice with all the versions of all the heroes of the classic trilogy.

26 years of waiting for a new Streets of Rage is nothing when the result is of the quality of Streets of Rage 4. DotEmu, Lizardcube, and Guard Crush Games perfectly understood the legacy of the beat 'em up of SEGA to the point of being a rounder product if possible with the very cheap Mr. X Nightmare DLC.

For less than 8 euros we have a new Survival mode and three additional characters, apart from other types of extras, such as weapons, enemies, customization of the fighters ... And something extremely special: Roo as a playable character.

How to Unlock Roo in Streets of Rage 4

Yes, the boxing gloved kangaroo that could be unlocked in Streets of Rage 3 returns in this latest installment and with an easier method to access it. We will only have to go to the History section in the start menu and hold this combination of buttons for three seconds (depending on the command):

  • Nintendo: Up + Y + Start
  • PlayStation: Up + Square + Start
  • Xbox: Up + X + Menu

And that's it. It’s that simple. Roo will appear as a playable character in Streets of Rage 4.

Now, if we want to keep it without having to press those buttons again, we must complete at least one phase so that the record with our score is saved using Roo so that it is permanently unlocked.

And as you can see with his special you can invoke Bruce, his owner of the circus. In fact, if you summon him three times in a row (yes, with three Bruce on screen) you will get the achievement/trophy "Clown Wars", which will give you 15G or a bronze.
