Renegade is a video game released in American and European arcades in  1986 by Taito. It is a westernized conversion (including changes to all  of the sprites and backgrounds) of the Japanese arcade game Nekketsu  Kōha Kunio-kun (熱血硬派くにおくん?, which roughly translates to  "Hot-Blooded Tough Guy Kunio", released earlier the same year by  Technos. It is an immediate technological predecessor to Double Dragon,  and Nekketsu Kōha Kunio-kun is the inaugural game in the Kunio-kun  series (which includes Super Dodge Ball and River City Ransom). Renegade first introduced several trademarks of the beat 'em up genre,  including 4-directional control, punch-jump-kick play action, and  enemies which can sustain multiple hits. It is considered to be one  of the most influential titles of the video game industry.

Home computer versions were released for the Amiga, Apple II and IBM PC  in North America and for the Amstrad CPC, ZX Spectrum, Atari ST and  Commodore 64 in Europe. The American computer ports were developed  by Software Creations and published by Taito, whereas the European  computer ports were handled by Imagine Software and published by  Ocean Software. They were typically limited to one fire button  rather than three; the different moves are achieved by combining  different joystick directions with a fire button press.  The Amstrad CPC version mimicked the three-button control of the  original by combining the joystick control with the cursor keys.  The Spectrum and Amstrad versions featured flip-screen rather than  scrolling levels. Barring these changes, the home computer versions  were close renditions of the arcade game in terms of level layout,  enemies and gameplay. The Spectrum version was voted number 48 in the Your Sinclair Readers' Top 100 Games of All Time.

Ocean Software produced two unofficial sequels to Renegade:  Target: Renegade, and Renegade 3: The Final Chapter. These  were released for the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64 and Amstrad CPC,  but never had corresponding arcade versions. Target: Renegade and  Renegade 3: The Final Chapter was also released on the NES and MSX  respectively.
