Crime Fighters

Released by Konami in 1989, Crime Fighters is a groundbreaking belt-scrolling action game that allowed for simultaneous play by up to four people. Featuring protagonists who take on the criminal organizations plaguing their city using their bare hands and improvised weapons, the game had a significant influence on later multiplayer cooperative action titles. With the exhilarating experience of clearing enemies from the screen and the intense gameplay born from coordination with allies, it remains a classic that left a powerful impact on the arcade scene of its time.

To save the mayor's kidnapped daughter, four fighters fueled by righteous anger stand up for justice. Players control these fighters as they storm the strongholds of a vicious gang ruling the city. The goal is to suppress the many enemies blocking your path and defeat the bosses waiting in the deepest parts of the city.
