Atari and Activision have reunited for the first time in nearly five decades to release the Atari x Activision Collection. The project brings back 39 classic Atari 2600 titles and releases them on physical cartridges. From the jungle-swimming action of Pitfall! to the aerial intensity of River Raid and the frantic paddle play of Kaboom!, these are the games that defined a generation.
“In 1979, a group of Atari programmers set out to prove that great games could come from independent creators and ended up changing the industry forever. The Atari x Activision Collection brings that legacy to life through the games themselves, giving fans an opportunity to experience, collect, and preserve the work of the developers who helped establish a new model for the video game industry.” – Matt Burnett, VP of Hardware at Atari.
