Billy Time Games – one of the most hard-working patchers in the world of Genesis / Mega Drive – has just expanded on his recently-released Streets of Rage "Bad Ending" patch with another one which boasts a whole host of features.
Streets of Rage Plus includes SRAM support to save scores, alternate colour options for each character, support for the Genesis six-button controller, a sprint ability and a difficulty randomiser.
Alternative colours are only present in single-player, and the following button combinations (entered when selecting a character) are required to access them:
- A – Original SOR1 Color
- B – Alt Color 1
- C – Alt Color 2
- Start – Alt Color 3
- B+C – Alt Color 4
- A+B – Alt Color 5
- A+C – Alt Color 6
The six-button controls basically allow you to pull off moves like the safe landing and back attack with a single button press, but Billy Time Games has also added a new feature – the ability to sprint.
- Hold Y (Any direction) – Sprint
- Hold Y (When thrown) – Land Safely
- Z – Back Attack
Finally, we have the difficulty randomizer; this is enabled by pressing the 'Mode' button on the six-button pad during the introductory cutscene to skip to the title screen. Enemy health and aggression will be randomized.
You can download the patch here.

This is brilliant news!!!! 😃
In fact, anything SOR related, as long as positive is great news! 🤩
Especially as I'm a huge fan of the Streets of Rage series and have been since an early teenager, I'm 45 years old now! 🦳🫣😆
Thank you very much BillyTime!Games / @BillyTimeG for your dedication to making older games more replayable in the present age 😃
You, and others in the modding scene 👏🏻🏅🏆🎉🥳
Cheers fella, I'll be sure to check it out and get a full playthrough going on it as soon as my life commitments allow 🍻
I really hope when it comes to SoR 2 and 3, that you've either possibly, already worked on, or that you maybe plan on doing so to make improvements to already legendary games!!
Anything for Streets of Rage 4 on PC or Switch would even be the dream!!!!
😲💭😍
I realise you / (*he/Billy) probably won't even see this, but to remedy this I shall post to his Twitter / *X 🙄 - X does not = Y in this case it equals 🤔🤨😒 wtf?! 🤦🏻
Anyways, take care BT!G from JBG, *my real initials 😆
Much more happy gaming and modding wished ahead sir! ✌🏻
@ScArTiSsUe78 I appreciate you! Thank you for all the kind words. <3
I appreciate you for making one of my favourite games and obviously yours too even better these days I'm sure!
Take care friend! ♡
Haven't played many game‐mods, and only one I've played concerning SoR is the Streets of Rage Remake by BomberGames which I thought at the time was excellent and added many new features to the series and added elements from the whole trilogy.
I currently don't have a pc so I'm looking to get a mid-high spec gaming one so I can get more into retro and even new games but playing at, at least mid specs but full or near full speed. Higher the better though, that's the home entertainment dream!!!!
Anyway, enough waffling, peace fella! ✌🏻
Gonna check this out. I've long craved something to wash off the stench of SoR Remake...
SoR4 is good but retreads 2 too much.
