Atari’s Recharged series breathes new life into the most seminal fan-favorites of the 1970s and ’80s while keeping true to what made those games undeniable smash-hits — simple and engaging gameplay, accessible pick-up-and-play controls, and plain ol’ high score-chasing fun. The Atari VCS version of Breakout: Recharged features exclusive content and is optimized for play with the all-new Atari Wireless Classic Joystick. 

Breakout: Recharged and the entirety of the Recharged series is made in collaboration with developers Adamvision Studios and SneakyBox Studios.

The official Atari Recharged soundtrack from award-winning artist and composer Megan McDuffee is now available on Bandcamp. McDuffee created the electronic 80s-inspired original soundtrack from the ground up for the series.

  • Endless Mode — Put your brick-breaking finesse to the ultimate test
