[3][2] and slated to be published by Sega. The game plays similarly to the developer’s later Sega Saturn title 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.[4]
Iron Hammer features the ability to play with or without Sega VR hardware.[5]
History
Legacy
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.[6] Sometime around 2012 it was again reported to have been playable at an unknown location.[5]
In 2019, composer David Javelosa posted a YouTube video containing the tracks he composed for Iron Hammer, and also implied he may have a cartridge of the game, but that he "probably won't be ripping and dumping ROMs anytime soon" due to possible ownership issues between NovaLogic, Sega of America, and various other parties involved in development.[7]
