Xevious 3D/G (ゼビウス 3D/G) is a 3D shooter arcade game that was released by Namco in 1995 only in Japan. It was later ported to the PlayStation in 1997 as [[Xevious 3D/G+]].

Gameplay

This is the 4th title in the Xevious series. It changes from the 2D format of the original to a 3D environment. You start off with the same viewpoint as the original, but later your camera is positioned above/behind the ship looking towards the action.

Secret Message

At the very beginning of the game, you have to cross a river. If you drop bombs at the edge of this you will get the secret message: "NAMCO ORIGINAL CREATED BY K. KENJO".

NeGcon compatibility

Although not enhancing the gameplay, the player could use the NeGcon controller to tilt the Solvalou.
