“Missile Command: Recharged Arcade is a love letter to Atari’s timeless masterpiece and it builds on what we accomplished with Asteroids Recharged Arcade,” said Luke Anderson, Chief Gaming Officer at Alan-1. “We’re honoring 45 years of Missile Command by delivering an unforgettable experience that bridges generations of players while fulfilling the needs of modern operators.”

“There’s no better way to celebrate almost five decades of this Atari classic than to bring it back to form,” said Jason Polansky, director of the Atari Recharged series at Atari. “Attendees of the PAX East trade show earlier this year loved playing Alan-1’s new cabinet, and we can’t wait to see it at arcades all around the world.”

The game will make its world debut at California Extreme 2025, held in Santa Clara, CA, where attendees will be the first to play this electrifying title before its wider market release. As a highlight of the event, Alan-1 will host a Major League eSports (MLeS) Grid Gauntlet Tournament, pitting the best players against each other for supremacy. The grand prize? A brand-new Missile Command: Recharged Arcade cabinet for the ultimate Missile Commander. Second & third place winners will get to select a single Alan-1 arcade part or piece of merchandise.

Players who are interested in competing can arrive prepared by downloading the MLeS app to their phone now. It is available on both the Apple Store and Google Play Store. Once you download it, create your free account, then when you go to play Missile Command Recharged, scan the QR code that appears on the screen using the app. Select the Grid Gauntlet tournament, and do your best to secure that high score!

Join us at California Extreme 2025 to experience the rebirth of an arcade legend. The game is now available to pre-order on Alan-1.com at an MSRP of $4,999, making it one of the most affordable games in the industry.
