Alien Soldier

Review
Also known as
エイリアンソルジャー

Control a superpowered mutant in this fast-paced, challenging run-and-gun shooter.

Alien Soldier was developed by Treasure and released exclusively for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive in 1995. It was not ported to other platforms at the time, so the original release year is also 1995.

About Alien Soldier

Alien Soldier is a side scrolling action game featuring Epsilon Eagle, once the leader of the Scarlet mutant group. This group has since turned to terrorism under a new leader, Xi Tiger, who now seeks Epsilon Eagle's death.

Gameplay is structured around twenty five levels, which are predominantly composed of boss encounters. Brief side scrolling segments provide opportunities to collect ammunition. The combat is challenging, with each boss possessing distinct attack patterns and vulnerabilities.

Players begin by selecting four from a total of six available weapons, each offering specific tactical advantages. As a mutant, Epsilon Eagle also possesses special abilities, including a screen wide teleport and the capacity to transform into a devastating phoenix form when at full health.
