Panzer Dragoon Orta was made forward compatible with the Xbox 360 on April 19, 2007. As she rides on the dragon's back through a post-apocalyptic world, she must defend herself from the forces of an oppressive and militaristic Empire, who believe she is the harbinger of their destruction. The game focuses on a young girl, Orta, who has been held as a prisoner her entire life, before being freed by a mysterious dragon. This makes it one of two Panzer Dragoon games not developed by Team Andromeda, even though Smilebit included many of Team Andromeda's former members.

Panzer Dragoon Orta was developed by Smilebit, one of Sega's second-party developers. It is the fourth console game in the Panzer Dragoon series, after three such games on the Sega Saturn. The game was released in Japan in December 2002, the following month in the United States, and three months later in PAL territories. Panzer Dragoon Orta is a rail shooter video game published by Sega for the Xbox. Shooter, Shoot 'em up, Action, Rail shooter
