Lethal Weapon is a video game based on the film series of the same name created by Shane Black.

Lethal Weapon is a side-scroller, in which the player chooses one of the two Los Angeles police partners from the film series, Martin Riggs or Roger Murtaugh, and battles it out with criminals around the city.

There was another version of the game released for the day's arcade formats and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

The first four missions have the player trying to do things such as rescue their friend Leo Getz, defuse a bomb in a shopping mall, stop a dockside smuggling operation, and prevent terrorists from blowing up the city's sewer system.

It is broadly similar to the game on Arcade and SNES, but features unique levels and different gameplay mechanics.
