Teaser text from this American version:
The Big Apple's Gone Rotten
Rival gangs have joined forces and New York City is under siege. Your mission: seek out and destroy their leader - Martha Splatterhead - former member of your elite Combatribe Cyborg unit. But in order to get to this renegade babe you'll have to do some head bashin' with five of the most feared gangs in Gotham... on their turf!

As expected this American version of the game was censored. Blood was removed from the boss cutscenes and, interestingly, was recolored in blue to look more like water and sweat. The 5th stage shows the most differences - Its name was changed from The Slaughter Troops to The Demolition Troops and the Execution army men were renamed The Enforcers. Same for the stage boss, the Cyborg Colonel called Swastika was renamed Major Blaster.
