Evercade announces new contenders, Activision and Llamasoft enter the Grid

We've already had a batch of Ultimate/Rare Spectrum and Nintendo games announced from the Blaze/Evercade squad this month and now there's more delights (after a spot of teasing over the week) on the way to add to the release list with a pair of spectacular new additions to the line-up.

First up is Activision Collection 1, as console cart 47 finally bringing the classic Atari 2600-era titles to Evercade with the joys of BeamRider, Enduro, River Raid and Pitfall among 15 titles, arriving in November.

Naturally, there's some gaps there for H.E.R.O, Decathlon, Ghostbusters and many sequels to appear in future carts, but well done Evercade for persisting and filling in the most obvious gap across the platform's roster. Trailer here. 

And then we have The Llamasoft Collection (Computer cart 10) bringing a staggering 27 of Jeff Minter's legendary udder-obsessed games across most home computer formats stretching from the VIC-20 to the Atari ST. This cart includes legendary titles like Gridrunner, Attack of the Mutant Camels and Llamatron 2112, Voidrunner and Hover Bovver, with some variants.  

This too hits in November, with a bust festive season lined up for Evercade owners, whatever version of the system they have.
