Overview

After Burner is Sega's arcade aircraft-shooting series, built around rushing forward into enemy fire. Sweep targets into your sights, launch missiles and dodge attacks as the scenery races past. Speed and quick reactions drive the experience, with later games adding new ways to clear the sky or customize your aircraft. Representative games: After Burner (1987): Establishes the series' fast, behind-the-aircraft view of arcade jet combat. After Burner Climax (2006): Adds Climax Mode, letting you target and destroy large groups of enemy aircraft. After Burner: Black Falcon (2007): Takes a separate PSP branch into mission-based combat with purchasable aircraft upgrades. Suitable for: Players who enjoy fast shooting, split-second dodges and learning a dangerous route through repeated attempts. The action keeps moving, so expect to react quickly while watching targets and incoming attacks at the same time.
