Eliminator

Eliminator is an action shooter set in the televised Elimination event, where prisoners fight through dangerous arenas for survival, fame, and freedom. Following the Civil War, the event becomes a weapons-testing ground in which prisoners of war are forced to compete.

Players can choose from four crafts—the Redeemer, Freedom, Liberty, and Survivor—each with different ratings for shield power, weapons, and top speed. The campaign spans eight arenas: the Penitentiary, Maze, Asylum, Cage, Chasm, Monastary, Tomb, and Fortress. Each arena contains robotic creatures, futuristic defenses, a time limit, and a boss encounter. Players can collect twelve assorted weapons while racing to finish before the bomb attached to their craft detonates.

Two players can compete in three special duel zones: the Pit, Dome, and Labyrinth. In these battles, each player must locate three hidden Warp Bombs before destroying the opponent’s base while defending their own. Progress can be saved after each level with a memory card.
