The original Blaster Master was released for the Nintendo Entertainment System while the sequel appeared on the Sega Genesis. Not including the Game Boy's Blaster Master Boy, Blaster Master: Blasting Again is the third in a series where players assume the role of Roddy, the son of the main character from the original. Roddy also drives the tank while jumping and shooting past enemies in a 3D underground environment. Players will also have to keep an eye out for switches and objects that allow them to open new areas of each level.

Years ago, the Earth was threatened by an evil being known as the Plutonium Boss. The Plutonium Boss and his minions were devouring the Earth from within, and if they had succeeded, Earth would've been destroyed.

He didn't count on a young man named Jason, a beautiful alien woman named Eve, and their battle tank, the Sofia MA-01...because of his underestimation, the Plutonium Boss was defeated.

Since then, Jason had been defending the Earth from any threat that arises, with Eve by his side. She even bore him two children, Roddy and Elfie. Jason trained Elfie in engineering, and Roddy in battling in Sofia. But now Jason and Eve have died, and Roddy must take his father's place as defender of the Earth.

And an old threat seems to be arising to challenge this new generation of heroes...

  Manufacturer's description:

REMEMBER "BLASTER MASTER"?
Due to popular demand, the immortal legend is blasting back, resurrected as a 3D-Action bonanza on PlayStation game console. And guess what? It's better than ever!!!

Our old champion Jason, weary of his battles has passed away and his heroic crown has fallen to Roddy his only son and heir. It is Roddy, with the help of his sister Elfie, that is destined to seek out and destroy the treacherous half flesh, half machine mutations that are steadily multiplying beneath the earth. Having depleted the space they have occupied since their supposed demise, they are now burrowing their way to the very core of the Earth and ultimately threatening the stability of the entire planet. Roddy must trek through Earth's crust and find a way to stop this terrible infestation.

Like wood worms they will leave the Earth rotten, a dusky husk that will collapse in on itself.

Roddy will reveal the secret of Eve, his alien mother, and will uncover the idiosyncrasies of Sophia, and will fight and win.
But then again, that's up to you.........
The "Blaster Master" is back!
