Elemental Gearbolt (幻世虚構 精霊機導弾, Genseikyokō Seireikidōdan) is a light gun shooter video game developed by Alfa System and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation. It was released in Japan in December 1997 and North America in August 1998 by Working Designs.

Elemental Gearbolt received positive reviews[4][5] due to its science fantasy setting, which is uncommon in light gun shooters, along with its incorporation of RPG elements, and particularly the artistry of its presentation. It features an orchestral soundtrack, and animated cutscenes directed by renowned anime director Rintaro.[6]
