Play Exo Squad Online

Exo Squad came out for the Sega Genesis in 1995, developed by Novotrade International. It was a time when licensed games based on cartoons were common, and this one was an adaptation of the animated series about a futuristic war. You got a side scrolling action game that felt right at home on the system, sitting alongside other sci fi shooters of the era.

You control a soldier piloting a powerful E Frame exosuit. Your mission is to fight through waves of robotic Neosapiens across various planets. The core gameplay involves running and gunning, but the key mechanics are switching between two different weapon systems on the fly and using your jump jets for limited flight to navigate platforms and avoid enemy fire. The levels are linear but packed with enemies, and the difficulty can be punishing if you don't manage your limited ammunition and health carefully. It feels like a constant, frantic battle for survival against overwhelming mechanical odds.
