The Sega Saturn version of Road Rash (ロードラッシュ) is an entry in the series with the same name, and the first 3D Road Rash game. This version of Road Rash was originally released for the 3DO console in 1994, pre-dating Road Rash 3: Tour De Force but being released after Road Rash II. It was brought to the Sega Saturn in 1996 (as well as the PlayStation and Windows PCs).

Despite sharing the same name, it is a different game from the original Road Rash released for the Sega Mega Drive, Sega Game Gear and Sega Master System - though the basic gameplay is similar, the world is presented in 3D and the game enjoys CD-quality audio and full motion video. It is also different to the Mega-CD version, though in this case some assets such as full motion video is shared between the two.
