Features:
Altered Beast is a 1988 arcade game developed and manufactured by Sega.
After its initial arcade release, it was ported to several home videogame consoles.
Makoto Uchida was primary developer of the game who was responsible for the creation of
Golden Axe series.

Playstation 2 version, rather than serving as a sequel to the original game,
the newer title features a more modern setting that is unconnected to the original game.
The story follows a man called Luke Custer who is a "Genome-Cyborg",
which in the game is a human that has had his DNA and other genetic make-up altered
so that he can transform into a mythical beast.
The main creatures he transforms into are a Warewolf, a Merman, a Garuda, a Wendigo,
a Fire Minotaur and a Thunder Dragon.
Its storyline differs from the original Altered Beast games, you gain a serum that allows
you to change at will.
There are a number of difficult boss challenges and puzzles within the game,
in addition some extra characters to transform into including a White Weretiger, a Grizzly Bear
and the alien-cloned U.W.H. (Unidentified Weightless Human) for those who finish the game.
