Three reissued titles to be released for Atari 7800 and Atari 2600+
Sydney, Australia, 30th January 2024: PLAION, a global leading publisher and developer of video games, and Atari, one of the world’s most iconic consumer brands and interactive entertainment producers, are pleased to announce that three iconic games originally produced for the Atari 7800 will be re-released on 24th May 2024. The games include Fatal Run, Food Fight and Ninja Golf, and will be released individually in new cartridges. Each game is compatible with the legacy Atari 7800 console, and the recently released Atari 2600+ console.
Fatal Run– In this post-apocalyptic racing game you must travel to various towns delivering medicine, while on your way to a missile base which houses a rocket that can save the world. This classic title represents the popularity of post-apocalyptic themes from when it was originally released in 1990, themes that are still prevalent today.
Food Fight – You play as Charley trying to eat an ice cream cone. But first you must avoid the chefs that are out to get you: Angelo, Zorba, Oscar, and Jacques. Avoid the food thrown at you by the chefs to get the cone. You can also throw your own food at the chefs to slow them down. This much loved title has endured as a classic in retro gaming circles, and is often praised for its fast paced and straightforward gameplay.
Ninja Golf – The Ultimate Ninja and sporting challenge, a game of golf and fierce Ninja battle. Swing and kick away at Ninjas, duck whipping stars, pick up treasure and shoot for birdies, it’s all part of a day’s fun. This unconventional combination of ninja combat and golf mechanics has helped Ninja Golf stand out as one of the most unusual games for Atari consoles.
Distributed worldwide, the games will be available to pre-order from today, priced at $44.95 each.

Sydney, Australia – January 25, 2024: Five months after the game’s launch, Milestone announces a host of new content to let the RIDE 5 community race even further. From today, a new patch will be released introducing some of the most eagerly awaited features: the online Race Creator and the Riding School.
For the first time in the series, RIDE 5 introduced the Race Creator, giving players the opportunity to design their own races and championships. So far, everything created in the Race Creator was for offline only. With the new patch, the Race Creator gets upgraded as players can now share their competitions online and download the events created by others. Designed to ensure longevity and let players express their creativity, the online features of the Race Creator also include a new tab showing the most downloaded events, the possibility to create and share custom logos for each competition as well as to set up events with specific suits, helmets, and liveries made by the community with the in-game editors. Finally, it will also be possible to modify riders’ information such as name and nationality.
The online functionalities of the Race Creator will give RIDE 5 a new twist, but that’s not all. The introduction of the Riding School is another major point of the patch. This is an entirely new game mode in which players can put themselves to the test over all the tracks in the game, bit by bit: every track is divided into four sectors, with their specific times to beat and related medals (bronze, silver, gold). After obtaining at least a bronze medal in every sector, the final challenge will be unlocked: a complete lap to beat within the set time. In this new game mode players will learn how to handle specific portions of the tracks in order to master them from start to finish, taking their riding skills to the next level.
The new patch is available now for PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Epic.
