Contra Force is a spin-off in the Contra franchise, released on the Nintendo Entertainment System on September 30, 1992 in North America (the game never saw release in Japan). Contra Force was developed and published by Konami, and has absolutely no plot ties to the other Contra games, save for a passing mention of the city that Contra Force takes place in Contra III: The Alien Wars. Contra Force was not originally meant to be a Contra game, but rather a completely unrelated game known as Arc Hound, which was previewed in Japan. Arc Hound was never released. The plot takes place in Neo City, during present day (1992). In Contra Force, there is an elite counter-terrorism unit known as the Blue Group (or the C-Force). The game begins with the team's leader, Burns, conversing with an informant named Fox, who informs the group that the task force's headquarters is in danger. Upon arriving at the designated meeting place to find Fox, they find him murdered, and are ambushed. Burns and the other members of the group (Beans, Iron, and Smith) must solve the mystery of who is behind this, and eliminate them.
