Arcadia, a world far away from Earth, is under attack by aliens.
As members of the Arcadia Defense Force, the player takes part in the fight against the invaders.
Featuring 3D graphics, the game's perspective varies from side scrolling to top down.
There are 4 weapons available to each character, though the differences are mostly cosmetic (a weak gun with wide spread, a stronger but slightly slower gun, a homing weapon, and a powerful BFG).
As the character picks up a Gun item, the character's next tier gun slot is filled.
Each gun can be upgraded three times, which increases the number of shots fired per trigger pull, but also increases energy drain.
Energy can be recovered by picking up the appropriate item, as can health.
It is also possible to store health or energy for later use (though each character has only one item slot).
Other pick ups includes an invulnerable energy sphere (can't be stored), lighting barrier and bonus lives.
Besides the usual movement and shooting, the characters can also aim up, down at various angles and have a 'strafe/ side step' move.
There are seven action packed levels.
Multiplayer is possible in two-player co-op mode.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Assault: Retribution for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Assault: Retribution to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 1998.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Assault: Retribution, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
