Technōs Japan
is a 1987 arcade beat 'em up video game developed by Technōs Japan and distributed by Taito across North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, China and Taiwan. The game's development was led by Yoshihisa Kishimoto, and it is a spiritual and technological successor to Technos' earlier beat 'em up, "Nekketsu Kōha Kunio-kun" (1986), released outside of Japan by Taito as "Renegade"; Kishimoto originally envisioned it as a direct sequel and part of the "Kunio-kun" series, before making it a new game with a different cast and setting.
