Rygar is a side-scrolling platform game created by Tecmo in 1986 and originally released for arcades in Japan as Argos no Senshi (アルゴスの戦士, Arugosu no Senshi, lit. Warrior of Argus).[5] The player assumes the role of a "Legendary Warrior", battling through a hostile landscape. The main feature of gameplay is the use of a weapon called the "Diskarmor", a shield with a long chain attached to it.[6]
A remake, Rygar: The Legendary Adventure, was released in 2002. As of June 2007[update], Rygar and its remake sold a combined 1.5 million copies worldwide.[7]
