Evercade manufacturer Blaze has announced that Amiga titles will be coming to the format in 2023 "and beyond".
The good news was confirmed at the recent Amiga 37 event in Germany, and will see Amiga titles appear in Evercade's growing library of physical cartridge collections.
"Blaze Entertainment will be able to license and publish Amiga games from multiple publishers for Evercade," reads the press release. "At this time there is no public confirmation of which games and publishers will feature in Evercade’s quickly expanding home computer lineup, but work is already underway to bring high-quality Amiga games to Evercade in 2023 and beyond."
Andrew Byatt. Managing Director, Blaze Entertainment, had this to say about the news:
