The visuals look very similar, but I can't see any continuity in the wikipeadia article.

OTOH, the sqare grid terrain can be traced to at least https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return_Fire although that was a sequel to a completely different game

Zarch was out out 1988, the port of Zarch, Virus, came out on Atari/Amiga a bit later, this came out 1995...
