Elevator Action Returns,[b] also known as Elevator Action II,[1] is a 1994 run and gun video game developed for arcades and published by Taito. It is the sequel to Elevator Action (1983) with a grittier, more realistic setting. It retains the elevator-based gimmick from the original, but expands the gameplay system and replaces the spy motif with a new scenario involving a paramilitary team fighting against a terrorist group.
The mostly well-received game was ported to the Sega Saturn and released in Japan only in 1997, and later included in Taito Legends 2 compilation release for the PlayStation 2, Windows, and Xbox in 2006. In 2022, it was included as one of the built-in games on the Taito Egret II Mini arcade cabinet.[2]
