New Rally-X

New Rally-X

New Rally-X is a 1981 mazevideo game developed and published by Namco for arcades. It was released in Japan in February 1981 and in North America by Midway Manufacturing the same month. It is a lightly tweaked version of 1980's Rally-X, with slightly enhanced graphics, easier gameplay, a new soundtrack, and a "Lucky Flag" that gives the player extra points for remaining fuel when collected.

New Rally-X was manufactured in greater numbers and was much more popular in Japan than its predecessor. While the original Rally-X, released under a Midway Games license, was a moderate hit in the United States, Midway only distributed New Rally-X as an upgrade kit for Rally-X cabinets.
