Timecop is an action game loosely based on the film of the same name. It was released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in early 1995.

An enhanced port for the Sega Mega CD was also in development at one point and was reportedly completed, but cancelled at the last minute due to its publisher, JVC, deciding to pull support for the system. Imfamously Timecop was even released to the public, albeit in demo form, alongside issue #45 of Sega Pro CD - it was originally planned for issue #40, but a reluctant JVC meant that a Mickey Mania demo disc was bundled with the magazine instead.

The Mega CD Timecop is much the same as its Super Nintendo cousin, however features a CD audio soundtrack and added cutscenes. Though it can be presumed a PAL release was planned (for mid-1995), it is unknown whether Timecop would have been released for the Mega CD in other regions.

The full game was released onto the internet in 2007 by its programmer, Jean Charles Meyrignac (?).
