Night Striker is an arcade shooter developed by Taito, featuring futuristic on-rails gameplay reminiscent of Sega's Space Harrier, where players control a hover vehicle. Originally released in arcades, the game was adapted for the Sega Mega-CD in 1993 with reduced graphics. A further iteration, Night Striker S, was released for the Sega Saturn in 1996, introducing a new mode and minor improvements. All versions remain exclusive to Japan.

The game was brought to the Sega Mega-CD in 1993, where graphically it was downscaled for the weaker hardware. It was also brought to the Sega Saturn as Night Striker S (ナイトストライカーS) in 1996 - essentially the same game, but with an extra `Saturn Mode` and a few small enhancements. No versions have ever left Japan.
