Last Bronx is a 1996 fighting video game developed by Sega AM3 on the Sega Model 2 mainboard. It was released in Japanese and American arcades before home versions were produced for the Sega Saturn and Windows systems in 1997. Set in a crime-ridden Tokyo, the game follows rival street gangs who take part in a weapon fighting tournament. Last Bronx became a big hit in Japan, and it was soon novelized and serialized into comics and radio drama, and a year later Takashi Shimizu directed the direct-to-video live-action movie. On June 29, 2006, Sega released Last Bronx on PlayStation 2 as a tenth anniversary celebration.
