Force Beams are an early development in starship beam armament, developed after lasers but before energy beams. First developed by the Khanate of Orion, the technology was soon duplicated by the Terran Federation, which went on to further refine the weapon and create the Primary Beam. Force Beams are short ranged compared to missile armaments, though this limitation was partially addressed by the development of the Capital Force Beam. Force Beams cannot penetrate the atmosphere of a planet.

  • The same laser beams appear with a blue color in the last stage from the Mega Man game for Game Gear, which is a reduced reproduction of Quick Man's stage. In this game, a direct hit from a Force Beam will cause damage to Mega Man rather than killing him instantly, however hitting the beam after it has finished moving is still deadly. Also, for some reason, they change color depending on which weapon Mega Man has equipped. In Mega Man 7, there are similar fire-elemental beams in Turbo Man's stage.

Similar lasers appear in the first Zero Space stage of Mega Man X5. They have the same effect and can be avoided with Dark Hold (which has the same effect as Time Stopper). The lasers are green and at certain parts are fired from the ground and ceiling.
