Strider Hiryuu JP/Korea is the regional pressing via Capcom Japan and SKC Soft.

Is Strider Hiryuu still worth playing in 2026?

A Mega Drive adaptation of the famous Capcom action platformer, Strider offers a futuristic ninja adventure where Hiryu faces the Grandmaster in varied scenery. The strange cyberpunk art direction, unique acrobatic movements with cypher sword and energetic soundtrack make it an absolute reference of arcade port on Mega Drive. For anyone fond of Capcom action platformers or seeking an excellent arcade conversion on the Sega console, an absolutely essential recommendation today still without hesitation truly here indeed for any genre fan now.
