Breakers Revenge is a 2D fighting game released by Visco in 1996 for the Neo Geo MVS Arcade system, originally under the title Breakers. Two years later, Visco released the Breakers Revenge upgrade, a minor update containing a new selectable character and differently colored backgrounds. The game is rather obscure in the arcade and Neo Geo scene, likely due to its somewhat uninspired visuals and character designs, but it has gained something of a cult following thanks to its solid gameplay. The game never received an actual AES (Console version of Neo Geo) release or ports to any other consoles, pushing it deeper into obscurity.
