Arkanoid (アルカノイド, Arukanoido) is an arcade game released by Taito in 1986. It expanded upon Ataris Breakout games of the 1970s by adding power-ups, different types of bricks, a variety of level layouts, and visual layering and depth.

The title refers to a doomed mother ship from which the players ship, the Vaus, escapes. It was widely ported to contemporary systems and followed by a series of remakes and sequels, including the 1987 arcade game Arkanoid: Revenge of Doh. Arkanoid revived the Breakout concept, resulting in many clones and similar games for home computers, even over a decade later.
