Players control a futuristic aircraft tasked with destroying enemy forces across vertically scrolling stages. The main objective is to eliminate ground and aerial enemies while navigating complex terrain and avoiding enemy fire.
The game features a steady pace that balances moments of intense combat with strategic positioning. A unique mechanic in Xevious: Fardraut Densetsu is the dual-weapon system, where players use a standard air zapper for flying enemies and a bomb to target ground-based threats. This adds a layer of tactical depth uncommon in many shooters of the era.
Distinctively, the game incorporates a detailed narrative element through its "Fardraut" storyline, enriching the standard shooter formula. The blend of vertical scrolling shooter gameplay and story-driven progression makes Xevious: Fardraut Densetsu a notable TurboGrafx-16 title within the shooter genre.
