Lethal Enforcers 3, known as Seigi no Hero (セイギノヒーロー[2][3] or 正義のヒーロー—Heroes of Justice) in Japan, is a 3D arcade light gun game which is the third and final installment to Konami's Lethal Enforcers series. This installment is produced by Shigenobu Matsuyama.

Gameplay

[edit]

Lethal Enforcers 3 has players play as six different law enforcement roles in various scenarios in present-day Tokyo, Japan.[4] The policewoman is a hidden character.[4]

Players make their way towards checkpoints while shooting criminals, terrorists, or fugitives. Weapons such as submachine guns, shotguns, sniper rifles, and assault rifles are also available during each mission.[5]

Like Konami's earlier Warzaid/World Combat, players point and/or shoot outside the screen to deploy their shields.[6] Raising the shield allows players to protect themselves from incoming enemy fire at the expense of an inability to advance towards the goal.[6]

Unlike previous installments, players can compete with each other in making their way to checkpoints in various areas, in addition to capturing wanted criminals and earning promotions. Also, players do not lose lives when they shoot innocent civilians, instead they face being demoted.

The light gun is used in the game with a vibration to immerse the players in the stages.[7]

Much of the game's gameplay, music and mannerisms are reminiscent of Police 911, so much to the point where it could be considered a quasi-sequel.

Scenarios

[edit]

Lethal Enforcers 3/Seigi no Hero allows players to play the stages in the order they desire (with the exception of the Diet Building a.k.a. "Lethal Enforcers 3/Seigi no Hero" stage). With the exception of the Cops in the City stage, players have access to a 10-round Glock handgun as a standard munition.
