The apparent leak comes as developer Dotemu released a new trailer for the game.
A release date of April 23 for Dotemu's upcoming Streets of Rage 4 has appeared in the European Nintendo eShop. First spotted by Twitter user Wario64, Dotemu quickly posted that it "cannot confirm" that release date yet.
We are aware that some of you have seen a release date leaked this afternoon. Right now we cannot confirm it yet and apologize for the confusion.

We will keep you updated officially as soon as possible and thank you for your patience.
Dotemu has also released a new trailer for the game, which reveals its inclusion of retro tracks and characters from the previous Streets of Rage games, 16-bit sprites and all. The game will cost $25 and will come out "soon" for Switch, PC, Xbox One, and PS4.
Previous trailers for the sequel have focused on the game's soundtrack, which is being composed by several contributors to the original games, including the much-heralded Yuzo Koshiro. They've also highlighted the game's new characters, including the Jax-inspired Floyd Iraia, complete with robotic arms and a ground pound.
