Dynamite Duke (Japanese: ダイナマイトデューク, Hepburn: Dainamaito Dūku) is a 1989 action arcade game developed by Seibu Kaihatsu. It was later ported to the Master System, Mega Drive/Genesis and X68000. Being a Cabal-based shooter, it can be considered a follow-up to Seibu's Empire City: 1931 and Dead Angle.

The Double Dynamites is a version of the original game with simultaneous 2 player support. In addition, there are other changes:

• Life gauges are shown with visible bars, where Duke and bosses all have 11 bars of life.
• In the English version, it is no longer possible to refill the life bar by adding credits after completing Mission 1.
• With the exception of Mission 9, there are more enemies on screen, including boss battles.
• In the high score entry screen, a countdown timer is shown.

A top scientist decides to utilise a secret formula to develop his very own army of evil mutant warriors, so he can become the ruler of the world. It is up to Dynamite Duke--a man with a cybernetic arm and a machine gun--to foil his evil plan.

The Arcade version has 9 stages, while the Genesis version only has 6 stages.
