The return of Star Raiders will combine tense aerial assaults and dogfights with a compelling new storyline, striking visual style and exhilarating single and multi-player gameplay.
Originally released in 1979, Star Raiders became the first ever first-person space combat title, inspiring several generations of “space combat simulation” titles throughout the 80’s and 90’s. This exciting new take on this Atari treasure will pay tribute to the original while ushering in an all new, captivating episodic experience. Star Raiders will offer familiar battle elements including space warps and galactic tactical maps with all new features like radical battle transformations and customisable ships.
Moreover, the all-new Star Raiders will bring powerful online play to the franchise for the first time. Co-op campaigns and competitive team-based multiplayer will enthrall both original and new fans.
Developed by Incinerator Studios, Star Raiders will be available in early 2011. For more information, please log onto www.atari.com or www.starraiders.com
