The series has completely revived some franchises. Berzerk: Recharged, released November 8, 2023, is the first game in the Berzerk series since the 1980s.[7][8][9]

Game developer Alan-1 Inc. licensed all ten Atari Recharged games with the intent to produce them in coin-operated video arcade cabinets.[10] The first of those to receive a release in this format was Asteroids: Recharged, which features significant changes from the console version.[11]
