Last Duel (US New Ver.)
Capcom • 1988


In Last Duel, players take on the roles of royal guards from the planet Mu, tasked with rescuing their queen and thwarting an invasion by the militaristic Galden tribe from Bacula. Set in a futuristic galaxy circa 2012, this fast-paced shooter combines driving and aerial combat as you alternate between piloting ground vehicles and starfighters to navigate challenging levels filled with enemy forces. Successfully completing timed driving sections is crucial for reaching boss encounters, while spaceship segments allow for barrel rolls that grant temporary invincibility. Players can choose from a selection of power-ups to enhance their attacks, ranging from wide shots to side options, alongside speed boosts to help them tackle the demanding vehicle sequences. The game supports cooperative play for two players, allowing friends to team up and face the Galden threat together. Last Duel features vibrant graphics and a dynamic soundtrack created by Golden Tamayo, showcasing Capcom's signature style during the late 1980s arcade boom.
