OutRunners is a sequel to the 1986 Sega classic OutRun. It was released in 1992 for the Sega System Multi 32 arcade platform. The game follows a similar format to OutRun, but has vastly improved graphics, selectable cars and more music tracks (including those featured in the original OutRun game). Sega System Multi 32 hardware meant the game was always distributed as a two player game (with two screens, controls etc.) and therefore when it is linked to another cabinet it is possible to have a four-player racing experience. Also unlike OutRun, rather than taking a trip across Europe, in OutRunners you drive across the world, and has twice as many possible endings.
Though it was the most popular game for Sega's Multi 32 hardware, unlike its predecessors OutRunners only received one home console port. Data East brought the game to the Mega Drive in 1994, but split the screen horizontally into two in an attempt to mimic the two screens of the System Multi 32 platform. This, along with the reduced graphics quality, meant this version of the game is often the subject to harsh criticism.
