Dragon Spirit is a vertical scrolling shoot-em-up arcade game that was released by Namco in 1987. It runs on Namco System 1 hardware.

After a millennium of captivity, an ugly serpent demon named Zawell escapes imprisonment and kidnaps Alicia, princess to the kingdom of Mitgult. A young, crafty soldier Amul is selected to rescue the princess and destroy Zawell. In praying to the gods for strength and courage, he points his sword high toward the heavens. Suddenly he is transformed into an all-powerful blue dragon, bestowed with special powers. Though gifted with a lethal air and ground attack, this is not enough. He must locate and obtain extra powers along the way. The demon has instructed nine of the mightiest beasts to stop Amul before reaching his goal.

Upon completion of the game, the credits appear followed by a list of Namco games up to this point along with their release dates.

A sequel named Dragon Saber was released in 1990, which allowed two players to play simultaneously.
