After Three Decades, This Namco Arcade Game Is Finally Coming To Consoles

In: Gaming, News

Arcades may be largely a thing of the past, but some of the bigger cabinets of the ’90s offered players co-op battles and head-to-head match-ups that consoles of that era couldn’t match. Now, one of those games, Namco’s Tokyo Wars, is finally getting its first console port after debuting in 1996.

Tokyo Wars is coming to modern consoles as part of Hamster Corporation’s Arcade Archives and Arcade Archives 2 collections. The game lets players control a tank or a team of tanks as they face off against a rival team in Tokyo’s downtown district or the city’s bayside dock. In the arcades, up to eight players could take part in Tokyo Wars’ head-to-head battles if four two-player cabinets were linked together. The cabinets also featured an air-powered recoil that simulated the sensation of tank fire.

It’s important to note that the Arcade Archives version for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch don’t have as many options as the Arcade Archives 2 version on other consoles. In the former, players will get the original arcade game, a high-score mode, and a caravan mode that gives players 10-minutes to come out on top. Each of those modes will support online rankings.

However, only the Arcade Archive 2 versions on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Switch 2 will offer split-screen multiplayer, a time attack mode, and VRR support. Tokyo Wars’ Arcade Archive 1 and 2 versions are both available now on their consoles’ respective digital storefronts.

If you’re looking for a quieter arcade experience, the Golden Tee Arcade Classics collection was released earlier this year. But if you want to play the action-packed from Cyberpunk 2077 arcade game, Cyberpunk 2077 Turf Wars, you’ll have to find a Dave & Buster’s or another modern arcade.
