Aero-Cross[a] is an unreleased platform video game in development by Namco Bandai Games for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It was intended as a modernized sequel to Metro-Cross, a 1985 arcade game from Namco. Players control a character through each level while avoiding obstacles and trying to get to the end before the timer ran out. There are items that grant different effects, such as a cola can that temporarily freezes the timer, and a skateboard that allows the player to glide across the level.
Produced by Klonoa and Mr. Driller creator Hideo Yoshizawa, Aero-Cross was intended as the third in the Namco Generations series of modernized arcade game remakes. Emphasis was placed on finding alternative routes to get to the end of the level faster, as well as its multiplayer. Namco Bandai remained quiet on the game until December 2012, where it was officially announced as being cancelled. Compared to the other cancelled Namco Generations game, a remaster of Dancing Eyes, critics showed interest in Aero-Cross for its gameplay and concept, and showed disappointment in its cancellation.
