Quantum: Recharged, the latest game in the Recharged series from SneakyBox (@SneakyBox) and Atari (@atari), is set to launch on August 17 for Xbox One, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. The game is a modern reimagining of the arcade classic Quantum, which was released in 1982 and featured a unique gameplay mechanic that involved drawing shapes on the screen to capture enemies.

Quantum: Recharged is a pure retro-inspired gem adorned with contemporary flourishes. 40 years after its arcade debut, this Recharged title expands on the classic gameplay with a wider variety of deadly enemies and some new moves to even the odds.

This Recharged release expands on the classic gameplay with a wider variety of deadly enemies and some new moves to even the odds. Accelerate to make some distance between you and a stalking Neutron and use your dodge to avoid the Quarks’ deadly laser attacks. With two modes of play, you can chase for high scores in both the endless arcade mode or 25 curated levels designed to push your reflexes to the limits.

And, of course, it wouldn’t be a Recharged title without some new beats from Megan McDuffee. Hear the music build in real time as your combo multiplier grows higher and higher. Try not to get hit!

Quantum: Recharged Features

• What’s Old is New: Use modernized movesets and powerups to avoid deadly laser attacks from Quarks and stalking Neutrons as you streak across the high-flying battlefield

• Mode Madness: Two modes of gameplay — Challenge Mode and Arcade Mode — encourage you to either duke it out across 25 unique levels or just survive as long as you can against progressively dangerous waves of enemies

• Power-Ups: Even the odds with randomly spawning perks like unlimited dodges, enemy freezing abilities, and extra life nodes. One powerup might just turn the tide of the battle, but multiple will pack a serious punch!

• Co-Op and Leaderboards: Cover more ground with a friend across all modes of play to strategically clear out enemies in tandem and compete in global leaderboards in both Arcade and Challenge modes
