Asteroids

Description

In 1979, it was the great 25-cent escape. In 1998, repressed asteroid-destroying addictions will not be escaped when the legendary Asteroids hits again in 3-D! Activision introduces the next-generation of the most addictive arcade game known to mankind. Save your quarters… you’ll need them to pay your bills.

Asteroids is the revolutionary, new 3-D space shooter and ever-more addictive remake of the 1980s arcade blockbuster. Featuring immersive 3-D worlds, highly evolved gameplay, and replayability designed to perfection, Asteroids promises to be the action game hit of the year!

Classic Franchise Intensity: Activision’s all-new Asteroids melds the classic fire-shield-thrust style of gameplay and nostalgic sound effects with vast new hyperspace 3-D worlds, explosive effects, cinematic cut-scenes, plus more enemies, weapons and modes of gameplay.

Brave a multitude of distinct space worlds or “Zones,” each comprised of sub-levels of advancing difficulty, a bonus level and major boss. Zones vary from a 3-D update of the classic to a Black Hole world with a deadly gravitational pull to a world where hostile suns shoot arching flames.

Equip one of three asteroid-clearing ships with an additional unique weapon hidden in each Zone. Search for laser nets, repulser shields, shock waves, gun satellites that orbit and add to your ship’s firepower and more.

Enter frenetic multiplayer action on a single screen. It’s every ship for himself in Deathmatch mode.
