Rocky Bear definitely looks so different from the Bear we know...

so, Hakus appear in stage 1 and there were some different graffitis in the wall, also Barbon's Bar has a closed door. Interesting.

This is awesome & interesting stuff,I wonder if it's possible to restore them?

Not exactly if you don't have those prototypes.

I gathered every prototype stuff that could be found on Streets of Rage 3 on SegaRetro and TCRF wikis :
https://segaretro.org/Streets_of_Rage_3/Development

I also found 3 new screens for the beta blue streets bike stages and also deduced that Australian games reviewers actually had a BK3 prototype for review in May-June 1994, even though SOR3 released on April 1994.
Gave this information to the people from HiddenPalace.org, hopefully this lead can give something in the future.
Have a video of that prototype there :

Nice find Iceweb,didn't know there were other screenshots of that third unused bike stage?

Better yet,why not create a thread that restore some stuff from beta's?

Well in that case, this topic would be the place anyway :

Moved all the beta zan recreation stuff there !

Hey guys,I want to share these unused stuff I took screenshots of,it's a bunch of unused sprites & other things that have been scrapped during the development of SORR.

Looks like it seems there were plans to have Souther look goons or maybe it was just an idea.



This guy looks like who was going to be the boss of the Signal gang.



Here's a handful of unused enemies that never put into the game,apparantly there where going to be a Female Ninja,a Shiva looking goon & cyborg enemies plus a Soozie on a Jet Ski,plus unused Arcade Cabinets & a playable Robo X!?















Here's some unused stuff that they've scrapped for the forgotten Mr.X mode that they were planning to do.













Wish they added this as a costume for Axel & wait,a playable Murphy?!







Two unused cutscene images & an early concept of the route select screen.







I hope you guys find these stuff interesting.

Wow, those screens look really cool. Thanks for sharing. Some of that might make it into 5.2, you never know.

Heh heh no problem! Oh really,like how for instance?

Well I just mean if the dev is quietly browsing the forums. lol I do like some of those concepts, and the map certainly has potential.

Lol good point XD but Im actually surprise that the dev is using the fourms to make the update more awesome,Im gonna keep my fingers crossed so he dose use some the unused stuff that I posted here & besides,the game needs new enemies XD

The updated Golden Axe and QTE Machines were supposed to be added to 5.0 but for whatever reason, they weren't.  Stay tuned though cos I've got a way to rectify that....

(PS: The final Golden Axe one looks better than the one posted above)

I think I used the ones you made in my mod Xilla.

Yeah I wish they added them to be honest.

(True XD)

I've since updated them further! (And replaced one)

Oh really? Heh nice!

Yes. You would've played as Mr. X and others like Elle and Shiva IIRC. The first level was busting out of the prison that was posted above.
