Alien vs Predator is a 1993 SNES game developed by Jorudan and published by IGS in Japan, and by Activision internationally. It is part of the Alien vs. Predator franchise. Despite the similar game play, it is not related in any way to the arcade game of the same name, which was released by Capcom eight months later.

Regional Differences[edit]

The Japanese version of the game is titled Aliens vs. Predator rather than Alien vs. Predator, and features an orange-colored Predator who moves slowly, but is able to run by tapping left/right twice, whereas in the western release the character is light brown and moves relatively fast, though he is not able to run. The laser bar required to fully charge in order to shoot lasers is also longer than the western version. Also in the Japanese edition of the game there is a 1 on 1 duel fighting mode where the first player is the Predator and the second player is an Alien.
