Metal Max is a role-playing game series produced by Crea-Tech. Due to copyright problems, the series was split into two sub-series, "Metal Max" and "Metal Saga". Metal Max was initially published by Data East, and later the "Metal Max" trademark was acquired by Enterbrain and the game was published by Kadokawa Games; Now Production and Enterbrain then published the portable versions of the games. Instead "Metal Saga" is a Success Company's trademark.

The first release of the series is Metal Max; it was released in NES in 1991, and it was one of the first open-ended and non-linear role-playing video games.
