Missile Command Delta Announced

Atari announces Missile Command Delta, the latest revival of an OG Atari property from the current owners of the brand and its IP. This is listed as coming "soon" to PC and PlayStation. The original Missile Command was a trackball arcade action game released in 1980. As seen in the Missile Command Delta Official Announcement Trailer this follow-up is a departure which places the player in a command bunker where puzzle-solving turn-based tactics will make the difference between winning and losing. Here's the Steam Listing and here's more:

Missiles are incoming. The stakes are high. Only you can stop the destruction. The teams at Mighty Yell and 13AM Games have taken one of Atari’s most iconic titles and created a high-pressure, tactical turn-based game where players must manage their pool of defenses strategically to survive rounds of incoming missiles.

Missile Command Delta approaches gameplay in a completely new way, but it retains all the tension and suspense of the arcade original. You have to think strategically about every move you make because even one poor choice can have grave consequences. The turn-based strategy game is wrapped in a twisting, narrative thriller – great for mystery fans, completionists, and players that love to explore and solve puzzles.

First, the minimum processor requirement is Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q8200 @ 2.33GHz

Second.. I feel they should release a version of the original gameplay MC for mobile, as touch-screen or drawing a line on a touch-screen would be fun. But, "THE END" game sound should be max volume on speaker for everyone to hear.

Puzzles? Missile Command is about pushing a button, guess I’ll be sticking with Global Thermal Nuclear War on the Amiga.

I could probably make this game in a couple of days, using nothing but an AI to write code for me. What a terrible cash grab.

Spoken like someone who has never made a game before. None of what you said is true.

It was hyperbole. Look it up.

Lol. Fake new age Atari, with a barely connected Missile Command.

That said, Missile Command was an extremely primitive arcade game, I can only imagine the original gameplay wouldn't hold up in 2025.

Maybe. Funny, I used to hate turn-based games but I do as an old fart.

Having watched the video now...no. Oh Hell no.

This and the Yars game is just this new bunch of raiders digging up ancient corpses and raping the skeletons. Puzzles? Low poly, hex gird, turn based? Why not just make it an idle clicker game if you're going to completely ignore everything about the original?
