Poseidon Wars 3D (ポセイドンウォーズ3D) is an ocean-based shooting game developed and published by Sega for the Sega Master System which uses the 3-D Glasses to create the illusion of depth.

Poseidon Wars 3D is based on Sega's 1982 3-D VCO Object arcade game SubRoc-3D.

Gameplay

The game is played from a first-person perspective, requiring the player to shoot down a series of enemy vessels and helicopters.

While Poseidon Wars 3D is a single one player game, two functions are mapped to the second control pad; switches between 3D and 2D mode, while exits the current mission.

History

During development, the game was known under the working title of Submarine 3D.

Legacy

The game would make its Japanese debut (as well its first re-release) through Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii in 2025 for multi-platforms.
