RetroRealms Arcade, WayForward’s newest venture, brings retro-inspired horror gaming to consoles and PC. Featuring pixel-art graphics, tight controls, and classic arcade vibes, RetroRealms Arcade kicked off its journey on October 18, 2023, with its debut titles, Halloween and Ash vs Evil Dead. Both games feature iconic characters and worlds from their respective franchises, creating a thrilling blend of nostalgia and modern gaming.
Physical Editions Delayed, Digital Available Now
While the digital release went smoothly, physical copies of RetroRealms Arcade’s Double Feature initially faced a delay. Both the standard and Special Edition releases were slated for October 18, but the physical launch has been pushed back.
