Xevious Geneology

1982 - Xevious - A single fighter jet flies with a mission to destroy all enemy forces, both in the ground and on the air.

1984 - Super Xevious - Xevious is back with an uptick in difficulty and a few new enemies to deal with.

1984 - Grobda - This is something of a spin-off, where the player controls a Grobda tank originally featured as an enemy in Xevious.

1991 - Solvalou - The game is the same, but this time the player gets a pilot's eye, 3D-rendered view of the action.

1995 - Xevious 3D/G - This game keeps the 3D rendering, but the point of view shifts between the traditional overhead and a new over-the-shoulder viewpoint. This entry also offers 2-player simultaneous play.

1995 - Xevious Arrangement - In celebration of their pioneering video game titles, Namco went back and "remixed" six of their more popular games, spicing them up with new graphics, new sound effects and music, and new elements of gameplay.
