Game Description

Contra Force brings the hard-hitting action of the Contra universe to the gritty streets of Neo City, where a rogue terrorist faction threatens national stability. As leader of the elite C-Force unit, players choose between four specialized operatives—each equipped with unique weapon loadouts and combat styles. Unlike the alien invasions of earlier Contra titles, Contra Force delivers grounded urban warfare across destructible stages with mission-style progression. Tactical character switching, power-up management, and intense enemy encounters create a layered experience that stands apart from its arcade-style predecessors.

Gameplay Features

  • Four distinct operatives with specialized weapons and movement abilities
  • Real-time weapon selection adds strategic depth to fast-paced firefights
  • Stages range from docks and warehouses to aerial battles atop helicopters
  • Heavily destructible scenery reacts to explosions and enemy gunfire
  • Character switching allows adaptive play based on combat scenario

Historical Trivia or Fun Fact

Contra Force is one of the rarest titles to bear the Contra name, and notably the only NES entry without extraterrestrial enemies. Originally developed by Konami as Arc Hound, it was repackaged exclusively for North America. Its unique status and limited print run make it a prized find for Contra completists and NES collectors alike.
