The Psygnosis releases continued with Assault Rigs hitting the Saturn in late 1997, this time only in Japan.

Again performing markedly worse compared to the PS1 original, the game features a tank moving about 3D environments collecting gems and blowing up enemies. The game starts out with a very respectable framerate but things slow down as the action intensifies.

It’s a fun game, but another example of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole in the great Psygnosis migration to Saturn.
