Developed by Media Vision and published by Sony, Rapid Reload arrived on the PlayStation in 1995 as an action game.

It belongs to the PS1's earliest wave of games. Other notable PS1 releases from 1995 include Rayman, Mortal Kombat 3 and FIFA Soccer 96.

Rapid Reload is a single-player game, so it's one to enjoy at your own pace.

Pick it if…

  • you want to fight, blast and test your reflexes
  • you have time for an evening or two (roughly 1–6 hours to see it through)
  • you've played the PS1 hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you prefer slow, thoughtful games over reflex tests
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing Rapid Reload is like

Action games test reflexes and nerve. Expect fast enemies, tight controls and stages you clear by reacting quickly and learning enemy patterns.

Tip for newcomers: Retro action games are often short but tough. Treat early deaths as practice runs; every attempt teaches you where the next threat comes from.
