Arcade Archives: Cosmo Police Galivan

Cosmo Police Galivan is a 1985 platform video game developed and published by Nichibutsu for arcades. The game is a homage to the Japanese tokusatsu shows Space Sheriff Gavan and Space Sheriff Sharivan. It was later ported to Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, ZX Spectrum, and Famicom. The game spawned a sequel for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System called, Cosmo Police Galivan II: Arrow of Justice. Hamster Corporation acquired the rights to the game alongside Nichibutsu's intellectual property; the company released the game as part of the Arcade Archives series for the PlayStation 4 in 2015 and Nintendo Switch in 2021.
