About This Game

“FIRST STRIKE… WITH TWIN COBRA!"


Twin Cobra (known as "Kyukyoku Tiger" in Japan) reaches new heights on PC with updated extras and quality-of-life bonuses like quick saves, online leaderboards, arcade-accurate emulation, and a brand-new beginner mode. In this vertical shmup classic, you'll have your hands full with fast-flying action and deadly opponents swarming the sea, land, and skies!

You're an elite chopper jockey ready to destroy an evil superpower! Their reign of terror stretches from coast to coast. But your might and will to fight are far greater. Take aim and make their ground grunts groan, their heli-fellas faint, and sea swabs sink!
