Darius Plus (ダライアス・プラス), is a port of the arcade game Darius for the PC Engine. It can be enhanced if played on a PC Engine SuperGrafx.

The original Darius utilised a multi-screen arcade cabinet - these versions are modified slightly for one-screen play.

Super Darius for the CD-ROM² is a similar conversion of the original Darius, although with with a higher quality soundtrack and different bosses.
