Atari, Mighty Yell, and 13AM Games announced turn-based tactical game Missile Command Delta for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam. The game reimagines Atari’s original 1980s game while offering completely new gameplay elements.
In Missile Command Delta, players explore an abandoned half-century old facility with locked doors, ruined work rooms, massive super computers, and newly reactivated missile command terminals. Players must defend against waves of missiles from an unknown enemy by using the terminals and a variety of missiles, each with a unique type, range, and explosion radius.
Over the course of the game, players will begin to wonder what is real from the battles and who they can trust. If successful, they will learn the truth of the Cold War-era defense program.
“While Missile Command Delta approaches gameplay in a completely new way, it retains all the tension and suspense of the arcade original,” said Atari Games vice president Ethan Stearns. “You have to think strategically about every move you make because even one poor choice can have grave consequences.”
Stearns continued, “Missile Command Delta has a little something for every kind of player — whether you love strategy tactics games, are a mystery fan, a secret hunting completionist, or you just love to explore and solve puzzles. We can’t wait for players to get their hands on the game later this year.”
A release date for the new title has not been announced, but it is planned to release in 2025.
