    By Tom Ivan for CVG UK

    A gameplay video for a proposed new entry in the Streets of Rage series has been published online.

    The now-canned, 3D reimagining of the side-scrolling beat 'em up franchise was previously in development at Crackdown 2 studio Ruffian Games.
    "So it seems like one of my previous projects has leaked, as pretty as I remember," Sean Noonan, formerly of Ruffian and now level designer on Watch Dogs at Ubisoft Montreal, wrote on Twitter.

    Ruffian studio head Gaz Liddon has now posted a YouTube video of a playable prototype of the game with audio, which you can watch below. He also had this to say about the game:

    "Here are some scenes from a playable prototype. It was something we built very rapidly and represents pre-pre-pre-pre (lots of pres) pre-Alpha quality. Even so it has a certain charm :)

    "What's the story behind it all? Like a lot of developers we work on a lot of different prototypes, they're just not usually shown in public. In this case an older version of the same video was leaked last week which came as a bit of a surprise if I'm honest. As it had no sound I thought there wouldn't be any harm sharing a version with audio."

    That looks good for such an early build but I'm not too upset it got canned. I would love a new Streets of Rage but only if it were a 2D game.

    I was actually about to post this myself!

    It looks fantastic, but I would prefer a 2D game too.

    I'm royally pissed. Fuck Sega.

    Of course I like 2D, but 3D has it's advantages as well; and I certainly wouldn't mind a 3D SoR. SoR was a dark and gritty game, more real than Final Fight... I think that would be hard to do in a shiny HD pixel game, they tend to look so... smooth and glossy if you catch what I mean. So I think to get this dirty city of crime on the screen today 3D maybe a better choice.

    But Sega sucks nowadays, so they won't ever bring a new reboot of a classic that actually lives up to expectations.

    Was gutted when Sega did a Cease and desist on SOR:Remake, glad Fighting Force never became SOR 4, never a fan of it, but love Die Hard Arcade and Dynamite Cop, so series could work well in 3D.

    Hander a quick gander at this video, love the enviroment, but characters seem to realistic to 'fit' into series.Was'nt a fan of Crackdown 2 (nor 1st game) but kudos to developers with tryig something and bahhhhh! to Sega for not doing something special of it's own for XBL/PSN.

    Looks a but like a prettier Fighting Force (which sucked).
    I like the Caanoo SoR game which allows you to choose any character and moveset on any game plus a new game too.
    It is very cool.
