Arkanoid: Eternal Battle Coming in 2022

Microids is working together with Taito on a new project, and the two sides announced today that Arkanoid: Eternal Battle, a new Arkanoid for the modern age, is releasing in 2022. French studio Pastagames, whose previous work includes the likes of Rayman Legends, Pang Adventures and Pix the Cat, is handling the development.

Check out the teaser trailer:

The owner of Pastagames had this to share:

For me, it was in the French city of Nice, 54 boulevard Jean Médecin, in a dark arcade called ‘Automat’. It was full of neons and highly diverse people, from bikers to middle schoolers. The arcade machine was breathtaking, with its metal ball-bearing paddle, while I was just a regular fifteen-year-old trying to get on with adolescence. We immediately fell for each other, and our relationship lasted several years. We all have our own story with Arkanoid. It feels so good to come together again, after all these years.

Fabien Delpiano, founder and owner of Pastagames

Masakazu Suzuki, director and executive officer of Taito, also said the following about the Arkanoid: Eternal Battle announcement:

“We are very pleased that Microids, a company we trust, will be releasing a modern version of a popular title that Taito released 35 years ago. We’re confident that both old fans and new players will be very satisfied with the game.”

Masakazu Suzuki, director and executive officer of Taito
