Evercade has announced a brand new cartridge featuring two award-nominated indie games – Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood – titled the ‘Xeno Crisis & Tanglewood’ Dual Game Cartridge for Evercade.
The announcement confirms their 12th cartridge and is the first to showcase their commitment to ‘new’ content (with both of these titles releasing originally in 2018).
This is the exact thing that we have been hoping for ever since we began talking about the Evercade here and on the podcast. If the company can get indie game ontop carts in these packs then it really has the chance to become a winning console as it then offers something that you can’t get anyplace else.
For those that don’t know, Evercade is a brand new handheld games console with unique multi-game cartridges. So far they have confirmed cartridges featuring games from Namco Museum, Interplay, Atari, Data East, Technos, Piko Interactive, Mega Cat Studios, Songbird Productions and now adding Bitmap Bureau and Big Evil Corporation.
“We’re very excited to have the opportunity to bring Xeno Crisis to the excellent Evercade handheld, a device we’ve been monitoring since we first heard about it. Having tested Xeno Crisis on the Evercade we were impressed not only with the build quality, but also by the standard of the emulation, and it is quite possibly the best way to play the Mega Drive version in portable form. The Evercade team are as passionate as we are about retro gaming, and we hope that this evolves into a long-term partnership.”- commented Matt Cope, Bitmap Bureau Technical Director.
