BLIZZARD® ARCADE COLLECTION BRINGS BACK THE GAMES THAT LED TO THE CREATION OF BLIZZARD ENTERTAINMENT.

Enhanced releases of The Lost Vikings®, Rock N Roll Racing®, and Blackthorne® now available on Battle.net®, Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4, and Xbox One.

Among their first creations were The Lost Vikings®, Rock N Roll Racing®, and Blackthorne®—each garnering critical acclaim and reflecting the early design principles of the company that would soon become Blizzard Entertainment.

On Windows PC, the Blizzard Arcade Collection is included as part of The Celebration Collection, a commemorative bundle of in-game items for Blizzard games that was released earlier this month to mark the company’s 30-year anniversary.

(Players who have already made this purchase will automatically receive the Blizzard Arcade Collection.) A version of this bundle is also coming to consoles today as The Blizzard® 30-Year Celebration Collection.

“The Lost Vikings, Rock N Roll Racing, and Blackthorne ultimately made it possible for us to go on to create Warcraft®, Diablo®, and StarCraft®, so we thought the Blizzard Arcade Collection would be a fun and fitting way to look back at our roots as a company,” said J.

The games in the Blizzard Arcade Collection come in their Original Editions and also upgraded Definitive Editions (details below), with each version featuring custom key mapping and the ability to rewind up to 10 seconds.

Each entry in the Blizzard Arcade Collection showcases the focus on fun, personality, and detail at the heart of all Blizzard games.

The Definitive Editions also bring The Lost Vikings, Rock N Roll Racing, and Blackthorne to a broader global audience than ever before, providing the first-ever opportunity for players around the world to play through these foundational Blizzard experiences in Italian, Korean, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, Russian, and simplified and traditional Chinese, in addition to the French, German, Japanese, and European Spanish versions that were previously available

The Windows PC version of the Blizzard Arcade Collection is currently available exclusively on Battle.net as part of The Celebration Collection (standalone purchase not available)

On consoles, the Blizzard Arcade Collection can be found on Nintendo eShop, the PlayStation®Store, and the Xbox Store as part of The Blizzard 30-Year Celebration Collection, or as a standalone purchase (SRP $19.99).*

* In Korea, the Blizzard Arcade Collection is only available for Windows PC

In Japan, the Blizzard 30-Year Celebration Collection is only available for Nintendo Switch
