- Strikers 1945 II – The world is once again in peril thanks to the machinations of the F.G.R. faction and their massive mecha technology. Only the Strikers team can restore order.
- Strikers 1945 III – This third outing for the Strikers team is the first ever re-release and sees Earth threatened by a swarm of alien microbots known as “nanites” who have infiltrated Earth’s military bases. The Strikers team must use new vehicles to eliminate this extra-terrestrial threat.
- Sol Divide – Three powerful heroes rise from the masses to stop the evil emperor Ifter from becoming a demon and taking over the world.
