Iron Hammer is an unreleased Sega Mega Drive tank combat game for use with the Sega VR headset, developed by NovaLogic[1][2] and slated to be published by Sega. The game plays similiarly to the developer’s later Black Fire.

Gameplay

The game features high-speed tank combat gameplay along a flat plane, similar to helicopter games like AH-3 Thunderstrike. Piloting an attack aircraft through thirty levels of alien combat, players are assisted by the digitized speech of their co-pilot as they traverse a variety of battlefields.[3]

Iron Hammer features the ability to play with or without Sega VR hardware.[4]

Preservation

In May 2008, Nicola Ferrarese of the website Games Collection showed a functioning prototype of the game at VGH 2008, a small video game exposition in Monza, Italy.[5] Sometime around 2012 it was again reported to have been playable at an unknown location.[4]

The game currently remains undumped.
