Shutokou Battle (首都高バトル) is an arcade oriented driving game series created by Genki in 1994. The games were released in America as Tokyo Xtreme Racer and in Europe as Tokyo Highway Challenge.

The series is based on illegal highway racing on the Shuto Expressway's Bayshore Route in Tokyo with custom tuned cars, which was a common occurrence at the time, until stricter police enforcement came into force.

The game series' influence can be measured by the number of North American and European driving video games inspired by the series' iconic features like the cosmetic tuning (Midnight Club, Need For Speed Underground, Juiced or Supercar Street Challenge among many others), the selection of Japan import cars or the choice of Tokyo as the background like The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, the trailer of the first film series episode was included in the western editions of Shutokou Battle Zero.
