Virtua Cop (Revision B)

Step into the gritty world of law enforcement in Virtua Cop (Revision B), a thrilling two-player shooter released by Sega in 1994. As a police officer, you and your partner must navigate crime scenes rendered with early polygonal graphics, quickly aiming and firing at suspects to bring them to justice. The game utilizes light guns for controls, requiring players to react swiftly as criminals appear and attempt escape. Each stage presents unique challenges, from crowded city streets to opulent mansions, all while facing a variety of armed offenders. A clever detail awaits observant players: a rotating statue of Sarah Bryant, recognizable from the Virtua Fighter series, can be found outside the headquarters of the criminal bosses—though the vase she holds is unfortunately vulnerable to stray bullets. Running on Sega’s Model 2 hardware, Virtua Cop (Revision B) delivers an intense and responsive shooting experience for up to two players, offering a taste of arcade action that would later see ports to various platforms. A limited-edition soundtrack album featuring the game's music was released in 1996.
