If you've been patiently waiting for an Atari VCS release date, we finally have an answer, along with how much the retro-inspired system with modern sensibilities will cost.
It’s hard to see the Atari VCS appealing to anyone but a niche group of consumers, as it’s unlikely to topple the likes of the PS5, Xbox Series X or Nintendo Switch anytime soon. However, that’s not the console’s intention, as Atari VCS COO Michael Artz previously said he hopes the console could provide consumers something different to PS5 and Xbox Series X, specifically for those “who may be weary of the iterative nature of the console wars something different to consider.”
The Atari VCS is only available to purchase via GameStop, Best Buy, Micro Center, and the official Atari VCS website. The console isn’t available in Europe, though the company has said it could release the device in more territories if there is demand.
