Gravitar - Limited Edition

Released as an arcade cabinet in 1982, Gravitar was an ambitious title, probably overly ambitious, that took the rotate, thrust and fire mechanics of Asteroids and Space Duel, combined them with the gravity of Lunar Lander, and added exploration and elements of cave flying. The result was an extremely challenging game that pushed beyond the technical boundaries of the arcade hardware, and failed to catch on with most quarter-wielding arcade players who were looking for shorter, more predictable gameplay.

It wasn’t until Gravitar was ported to the Atari 2600 that players began to recognize the quality of the game. It was distributed in limited quantities as a Silver Label cartridge to Atari club members, making it very desirable to collectors and adding to its cult following.

This item is currently in pre-production and the artwork is subject to change. Your order is expected to ship in 3 to 4 months. All orders are considered final and cannot be canceled once the preorder window closes.
