Play Battletoads Double Dragon - The Ultimate Team on gb Online

Battletoads Double Dragon came out on Game Boy in 1993, developed by Rare and published by Tradewest. It was a time when handheld crossovers were rare, and this one brought two very different beat 'em up franchises together in a portable format. The game felt like a natural fit for the system, even with the hardware's limitations.

You choose to control either the Battletoads or the Double Dragon brothers, then fight through side-scrolling stages filled with enemies. Your main goal is to stop the Dark Queen's invasion by defeating her forces across various levels. Signature mechanics include using exaggerated attacks, like growing giant fists or delivering spinning kicks, and navigating occasional vehicle sections that break up the pacing. The game is known for its high difficulty, especially in later stages where enemies swarm quickly. It feels chaotic and satisfying when you land a powerful combo and clear the screen.
