Collector interest

Road Blaster FX, the enriched Japanese version of the laserdisc arcade game of which Road Avenger is the Western cut, with Toei animation and spectacular staging. Its collector interest lies in its status as the reference Japanese edition of the laserdisc genre on Mega-CD, sought by purists wanting the source of Road Avenger. The original Japanese edition is the case purists favour.

Is Road Blaster FX still worth playing in 2026?

An FMV rail shooter from Data East, Road Avenger has you chase criminals at the wheel through fully hand-drawn animated sequences, where you must execute the right actions at the precise moment. The careful animation, the frantic pace of the chases and the action-cartoon staging stay spectacular, fully using the Mega-CD's video. The heavily scripted, reflex-based gameplay dates it clearly. A choice curiosity for fans of interactive FMV and laserdisc nostalgics.
