Operation Night Strikers

Aug 26, 2025

Operation Night Strikers is a strong collection from start to finish. Night Striker may be the weakest link due to its unfamiliarity and less refined gameplay, but it still offers potential and a unique concept. Operation Wolf, Operation Thunderbolt, and Space Gun are timeless shooters, and experiencing them again on modern hardware, with their original feel intact, is genuinely heart-warming. The gameplay intensity, audio-visual quality, and immersive atmosphere make these games memorable, and getting them all in one package is an opportunity worth taking. Gamereactor UK 9 / 10 + Authentic audio-visual experience.

Although most of the games in Operation Night Strikers are quite basic, they're still a great deal of fun to play, especially if you have nostalgia for classic arcade light gun games. With its wealth of control options, I don't think you could ask for a better implemented collection.
