"During the time Sonic and Mario fought for your living room space, another iconic classic graced the Genesis. It was born in the arcades when brawlers were rampant and eating up countless quarters and tokens. This 16-bit animal was called Altered Beast and was even featured as a pack-in game for the Sega Genesis when they first emerged on to the gaming scene." -BootHammer
GameCrate: "The Sega Genesis catalogue features a long list of classics that would be great to see revived on modern platforms. Here are five Sega Genesis games that deserve the Streets of Rage 4 treatment."
Throw in Guardian Heroes. The magic and mayhem would be crazy. With Undead Hero leading the charge.

YES!
Altered Beast with cel-shaded graphics is going to be lit!
Although I think the blood would look like tomato?
This Altered Beast fan game adds a bunch of fresh and remixed ideas to an old classic and is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android.
You and me both. Same goes with a proper Shinobi, Shining Force, or Golden Axe release (sorry, Beast Rider). So many amazing Sega IP to choose from.
Hardcore Gamer: Fans of side-scrolling beat’em ups certainly remember Altered Beast. The 1988 Sega title was released in arcades before making its way to home consoles a short time after. It was quite popular at the time and remains a classic title. Now, Funko has announced an Altered Beast Pop! figure for dedicated collectors to obtain.
I remember Altered Beasts so fondly. It was badass changing into the werewolves, dragons, etc...
Didn't know that
"WELMMMM TO YRR DMMMMMMM!!" Ahh yes, the start of voice work for the Genesis. Good times.
