Metal Lancer is an unreleased Mega Drive game programmed by Yuji Naka between development of Ghouls'n Ghosts and Sonic the Hedgehog. It was revealed by Naka in a 2016 interview conducted by Game Center CX's Masayuki Kibe.[1] It appears to be a space combat simulator. It starred a female robot pilot and used complex scaling and rotation effects comparable to the SNES's Mode 7.[2]

In June 2021, Naka tweeted a screencap of the game's placeholder title screen.[3]
