Namco's 1996 arcade tank combat game Tokyo Wars is receiving official console ports via Hamster Corporation's Arcade Archives and Arcade Archives 2 collections. Players control a tank or a team of tanks across Tokyo's downtown district or bayside dock and can face rival teams; original arcades supported up to eight players by linking four two-player cabinets and included air-powered recoil for simulated gunfire. PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch Arcade Archives release includes the original arcade, a high-score mode, and a caravan mode that gives players 10-minutes to come out on top with online rankings. Arcade Archives 2 on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Switch 2 adds split-screen multiplayer, time attack, and VRR support. Both versions are available digitally.
"Tokyo Wars is coming to modern consoles as part of Hamster Corporation's Arcade Archives and Arcade Archives 2 collections. The game lets players control a tank or a team of tanks as they face off against a rival team in Tokyo's downtown district or the city's bayside dock. In the arcades, up to eight players could take part in Tokyo Wars' head-to-head battles if four two-player cabinets were linked together. The cabinets also featured an air-powered recoil that simulated the sensation of tank fire."
"It's important to note that the Arcade Archives version for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch don't have as many options as the Arcade Archives 2 version on other consoles. In the former, players will get the original arcade game, a high-score mode, and a caravan mode that gives players 10-minutes to come out on top. Each of those modes will support online rankings."
