Known as Empire of Steel in Europe and Koutetsu Teikoku (鋼鉄帝国) in Japan, the original Steel Empire first launched in 1992 on the Sega Mega Drive. Recognized for its distinctive diesel-punk aesthetic, combining elements of steampunk and late-19th-century industrial design, setting it apart from other shoot 'em-up games. Later released on the Game Boy Advance and remade for modern platforms, the legendary game continues to build on its legacy today.
In The Legend of Steel Empire, players choose between the Striker Airplane or the mighty Zeppelin, equipped with an aerial mine launcher, to battle across seven complex stages filled with colossal battleships, armored locomotives, and invincible floating fortresses.
