Zillion, known as Akai Koudan Zillion (赤い光弾 ジリオン) in Japan, is an action platform game developed by Tatsunoko_Production and published by Sega for the Sega Master System. It is based upon the Zillion anime series, and was released as a companion to the anime only a few weeks into the series' original run. However, the influence the anime series had over Sega goes beyond just the video game. In 1986, Sega unveiled a redesigned, futuristic console in preparation for its entry to the North American market. Now known as, simply, The Sega Master System, the full units came equipped with the iconic Light Phaser. Its design, look, shape, and feel were a direct influence from Zillion.

A sequel, Zillion II: The Tri Formation, was released the same year and also developed by Tatsunoko_Production.
