Spy vehicle shooter where your ride morphs between bike, car and jet. Controls feel stiff today but the transformation hook still delivers a few grins. Good for a quick retro arcade session.

Is Action Fighter still worth playing in 2026?
An action game from Sega, Action Fighter has you drive a spy vehicle able to transform into bike, car then plane, across top down shooting and racing stages. The transformation concept and the upgrade collecting bring welcome variety to a snappy arcade action. The difficulty stays harsh and the production is late eighties to the core. For a retro arcade fan or someone curious about early Sega 8 bit titles, the title keeps a direct pleasure and a mutation idea that is still likeable.
