About This Retro Game
Released exclusively in Japan in 1999, this adaptation captures the tense atmosphere of the anime through its innovative 'Synchronization Rate' system - where performance affects both combat effectiveness and story progression.
The game features 15 missions recreating iconic battles against Angels like Sachiel and Ramiel, with unlockable content including the controversial End of Evangelion scenario. The 3D combat system requires strategic use of AT Fields, progressive knives, and positron rifles.
Notable for its experimental first-person 'Dummy Plug' mode and haunting original soundtrack featuring rearrangements of 'Cruel Angel's Thesis.' While criticized for its stiff controls, it remains a cult favorite for its faithful recreation of the series' psychological themes and impressive N64-era visuals of Tokyo-3.
