A Psikyo fantasy shooter where a powerful dragon is your fighter unit!
Dragon Blaze is a vertical-scrolling shooter game that first appeared in arcades in 2000.
The heroes are the four dragon riders. Attack using normal shots, bombs, magic shots (press and hold), and powerful close-range dragon shots.
The dragon shot is the main feature of this game. Defeat the enemy using this shot the moment you release the dragon to get more score items! You can also earn technical bonuses by hitting a boss's core using this shot. Separating from the dragon also changes the effects of the magic shot!
The game's amazing boss battle effects, transformations, and stunning background art that exude an eerie charm will jog your imagination as you play!
Take your stand against the demon lord Nebiros and his army of darkness in order to save your loved ones and the world!
The game comes with options you can tweak to your liking. Pick your preferred difficulty, max lives, max continues, key controls, screen orientation, and more to make the game just right for you.
Don't forget about the new online rankings! Do you have what it takes to become the best dragon rider in the world?
