Play Death Duel Online

Death Duel is one of those weird, janky-but-cool Genesis games that feels like someone threw RoboCop, Mega Man, and a tactical shooter into a blender. You play as Barrett Jade, a dude stuffed inside a giant cyborg suit, forced to fight nine galactic warlords in one-on-one duels because… well, future politics, I guess.

Each fight’s a timed scramble—you pick three weapons from a limited arsenal (missiles, grenades, machine guns) while balancing repairs between rounds. The trick? Every opponent has weak spots, and they’ll duck behind cover like cowards. Nothing’s worse than wasting your last rocket on a shielded leg while the clock ticks down. Between fights, there’s this odd gallery shooter minigame for extra cash that feels totally out of place, but hey, credits buy better explosives.

It’s clunky, tense, and weirdly satisfying when you finally crack an enemy’s pattern. Just don’t expect it to hold your hand.
