Dragon View, released in Japan as , is a 1994 action role-playing video game developed and published by Kemco for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It is a follow-up but not a direct sequel to Infogrames' Drakkhen. It uses the same pseudo-3D overworld system for which the series is most famous. Other features of Dragon View are its side-view action role-playing game (RPG) hybrid gameplay (used when exploring more detailed areas such as towns and dungeons), its well translated first-person storyline, and its emphasis on player-driven undirected exploration. In 2019, the game was re-released through emulation for Windows. In 2022, a reproduction SNES cartridge was released by Limited Run Games.
Gameplay
The Drakkhen series' most recognizable feature is its custom overworld engine. First used by the original Amiga version of Drakkhen, it was later used in the PC and SNES ports. Gameplay levels use a horizontally scrolling engine like its predecessor.
