Atari has announced the revival of the iconic publishing label, Infogrames, signaling a nostalgic return to its roots in European gaming culture. Infogrames, known for classics like Hogs of War and Alone in the Dark, will once again grace the gaming landscape, sporting its distinctive armadillo logo. The decision marks a significant shift for Atari, which merged with Infogrames in 2008 and subsequently phased out the Infogrames brand in favor of a unified Atari identity. Now, under CEO Wade Rosen’s leadership, Infogrames is making a comeback, promising a blend of retro charm and modern innovation.
While specific details about Infogrames’ upcoming projects remain undisclosed, Atari’s recent acquisition of Totally Reliable Delivery Service hints at a focus on diverse gaming experiences. The company aims to expand its portfolio through strategic acquisitions, potentially including legacy Infogrames titles. Recent releases such as qomp2 and Haunted House on the Switch demonstrate Atari’s commitment to delivering engaging gaming experiences across platforms. Additionally, the announcement of Yars Rising, a collaboration with WayForward Technologies, heralds the revival of the beloved Yars franchise, dating back to its inception in 1982.
