As you progress through Streets of Rage 4 it is inevitable that your character will take damage and you will want to fully recover the lost health as quickly as possible. Check out our How to Regain Health guide to find out how you can do this.
Aside from finding roast chickens or apples there is another less obvious way to get your health back in Streets of Rage 4. This is by using special attacks. You will notice when you perform a special attack that a portion of your health meter will turn green. This green segment indicates the amount of health you can potentially win back but also at the same time are at risk of losing. To regain this green health you need to keep landing successful hits on enemies without being hit yourself. If you take damage before you manage to refill the green part of your health it will be lost and you will be unable to get it back. If you manage to deal enough damage without taking any in return you will fully recover the green health that was used when you performed the special attack.
