Battling around the world, B-Boy features real locations and events, accompanied by the sound of a licensed Hip-Hop and classic Funk soundtrack with each track being selected by the B-Boys featured in-game.

Progress through play by taking on 40 of the world’s greatest B-Boy personalities, and pull off unique moves and outrageous combo’s to become number one. Key game features include:
