ROUTE-16R is an arcade video game developed by Wit One and published by SUNSOFT.
About
ROUTE-16R is a brand-new entry in the classic ROUTE-16 series, originally released in the 1980s.
Avoid enemy vehicles and monsters as you race through the stage, collecting every item scattered across the maze.
Switch dynamically between Maze Mode, where you navigate intricate labyrinths filled with traps and gimmicks, and Radar Mode, which reveals the entire stage made up of 16 mazes-delivering a high-speed chase experience that surpasses the original games.
Key Features
- Don’t Just Run—Fight Back with the Evolved MAD X-R
- Unlike previous ROUTE-16 titles, colliding with enemies triggers a transformation: MAD X-R shifts into a combat robot, initiating battle.
- Use your upgraded MAD X-R’s attacks along with SP items collected throughout the stage to deal damage and defeat your enemies.
- Customization
- Before entering a stage, use the money you’ve recovered to customize your MAD X-R.
- Enhance core attributes like fuel and speed, as well as combat performance, to suit your playstyle.
- Boss Battles
- The Kanharoo Gang won’t go down without a fight.
- Collecting all items won’t end the stage-doing so will trigger a boss encounter.
- Bosses unleash intense attacks to corner MAD X-R.
- Dodge their assaults, find openings in their defenses, and strike back by transforming into robot form to deal decisive damage!
- Multiplayer
- Multiplayer mode is included for the first time in the series.
- Compete in a mini-game where players battle to capture the flag.
- Enjoy fast-paced, arcade-style chase action with friends and family!
- (Local multiplayer only. Online multiplayer is not supported.)
