Collector’s Edition Official Atari Battlezone Quarter Arcade
Originally released in 1980, Battlezone revolutionised arcade gaming with its pioneering 3D vector graphics, immersive first-person tank combat and innovative dual joystick controls. More than four decades later, this iconic cabinet has been recreated in stunning detail, giving collectors and retro gaming enthusiasts the opportunity to own a premium replica of a true arcade classic.
The Battlezone Quarter Arcade has been meticulously crafted using high quality materials to deliver exceptional authenticity and playability. Featuring a 5-inch full colour TFT display in a 4:3 ratio with a CRT effect lens, the cabinet faithfully recreates the distinctive wireframe visuals that made Battlezone famous. A built in 3W speaker with volume control brings the battlefield to life, while USB-C power and an internal rechargeable Li-ion battery offer flexible options for both display and play.
Every aspect of the original machine has been carefully recreated, including the authentic cabinet artwork, illuminated marquee and coin doors. The iconic periscope viewer and original arcade step are both included and can be removed, allowing collectors to display the cabinet exactly as they choose.
