Description

Embark on an enthralling interstellar journey with Gradius, a classic shoot 'em up game by Konami, first released in 1985. As the pilot of the Vic Viper spacecraft, you're tasked with defending against relentless waves of alien enemies. This horizontally scrolling game was the pioneer in the Gradius series, introducing a unique power-up system via a weapon selection meter. The game was globally released as Nemesis outside Japan, with home versions available on various platforms including Famicom/NES, MSX, and PC Engine. With boss battles that have become a gold standard in the gaming world, Gradius is a must-play for fans of retro gaming.
