Paths of Rage is an in development 2D beat 'em up inspired mostly by Streets of Rage and other retro beat 'em ups but with a high fantasy theme.

Outside of the regular brawler classes you are used to in beat 'em ups I also want to include classes that rpg players are more familiar with such as tanky warriors, hunters, beast-masters and so on.

Since I am using Unreal Engine I am going for a 2D/3D hybrid look with 2D sprite characters and stylized 3D backgrounds.

I've been playing around with mixing 2D Sprites and 3D background in Unreal Engine a lot recently and put together a tutorial!

I'm also using these settings as a base to make a side scrolling beat 'em up.

This project started as me finally trying out what Unreal Engine can do with 2D, but after seeing the nice result of Sprites in a stylized 3D world I decided to start making a side scrolling beat 'em up with this style.
Stay tuned for more updates.
