NEW YORK 1994..... The police dare not patrol the streets. The army cannot control the city. Law and order no longer exists..... When street gangs dominate a city. When ordinary citizens no longer defend themselves for fear. And when law enforcement agencies are powerless to help. Your last chance is...... VIGILANTE..... THIS TIME IT'S WAR — Cassette cover

Vigilante (ビジランテ?) is a 1988 beat 'em up arcade game developed and published by Irem in Japan and Europe and published in North America by Data East. It is considered as a spiritual sequel to Irem's earlier Kung-Fu Master.

The game takes place in downtown New York City. The game's plot involves a lone, professional martial artist who became a vigilante to fight an evil gang called the Skinheads ruled by a man known as the Giant Devil, in order to protect his "turf" and save his girlfriend Madonna, who was kidnapped by them.

The arcade game was later ported to several different home computers and consoles. The Sega Master System version was ported and published exclusively in North America and Europe by Sega, and is one of several Sega Master System games to include an FM sound switch for enhanced music quality. In the Sega Master System version, Madonna was renamed "Maria" and the Skinheads were called the "Rogues". The ones for Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, Atari ST, Amiga and the Amstrad CPC were reprogrammed by Emerald Software and published by U.S. Gold mostly in Europe.
