Metamorphic Force (メタモルフィックフォース?) is an arcade game released by Konami in August 1993. It is one of the Konami's last side-scrolling beat 'em up games to appear in the arcades, along Violent Storm.
The game mechanics are similar to those of Konami's earlier arcade hit, X-Men, and runs on the same hardware as their ninja-themed game, Mystic Warriors: Wrath of the Ninjas.
Plot[]
The evil one, Death Shadow, has risen from the dead to rule the world once more. The Greek goddess Athena has summoned the souls of four ancient guardians and bestowed their power upon four heroes to stop evil once again. These guardians wield the ability to morph into anthropomorphic beasts to fight their enemies.
Characters[]
