Rambo is a platform video game released by Acclaim on the NES on December 4, 1987 in Japan, and May 1988 in North America. It is based on the plot of the movie Rambo: First Blood Part II.

While the game's cover art predominantly displays Rambo firing heavy ammo, unlike the movies the game has Rambo fighting mostly snakes, spiders, and animals at the beginning and then slowly moves on to fighting with actual people with better ammunition. Also, Rambo's primary weapon for the majority of the game is a knife. However towards the end a huge variety of weapons are collected.
