R-Type Delta is a horizontally scrolling shooter video game. Released only on the PlayStation, this is the first R-Type series game offering different fighters, with different Force and Wave Cannon combinations for the player to choose from. This title is also the first game in the R-Type series rendered in full 3D graphics.
This game introduced the 'Dose System', which allows Forces to absorb energy through collisions with projectiles or enemies. Every Force has a 'Dose Gauge', and when the Dosage becomes 100%, you can then use the 'Delta Weapon,' hence the title of the game. When activated, your Force will unleash the stored energy in a massive, full screen attack, totally devastating all enemies on screen and destroying most types of bullets.
New fighters in R-Type Delta
- R-9A Delta: A slight refinement of the original R9. Uses the Standard Force and the Shock Wave Cannon, which was renamed the Diffusion Wave Cannon in R-Type Final. The R9A's Dose Attack is the Nuclear Catastrophe, which fills the screen with electrical fusion. Each Dose Attack reflects the differences in each ship.
- R-X Albatross: A violet-canopied fighter with prominent wings. The Albatross uses the Tentacle Force, which has two extendable tentacles on either side and is equipped with powerful beam weapons. The tentacles respond to the movement of the player, which allows the intensity or direction of beams to be controlled. In addition, the Force, when detached, will seek out enemies on screen. The Albatross is also fitted with the Burst Shock Wave Cannon, which is capable of detonating enemies from within. (In R-Type Final, the ship's designation is RX-10, and the Burst Shock Wave Cannon is renamed the Shock Wave Cannon.) Its Dose Attack is the Negative Corridor, opening up a hole, distorting the screen, having a black hole "suck-up" any enemy it pulls by its grip alone.
- R-13 Cerberus: A squat black-and-red fighter. The Cerberus uses the Anchor Force, which is linked to the ship by an energy ribbon. The Anchor force has no projectile attack while away from the ship, but the energy ribbon bends and twists and can be used to attack enemies with the movement of your ship. This Force sports three sharp prongs which can embed themselves in enemies, causing continuous damage. The Cerberus is also fitted with the Lightning Wave Cannon, which emits a fast electrical discharge that home in on enemies. (In R-Type Final, the ship's designation is R-13A.) The Dose Attack is the Hysteric Dawn, which opens up a dimensional rift.
