Designed for the next generation of virtual reality devices, Battlezone delivers intense first-person tank warfare across gorgeous neon landscapes, combining the instant adrenaline of the arcade with a deeper tactical challenge.

Battlezone is a bold homage to Atari's classic 1980 arcade game, widely regarded as the forefather of virtual reality gaming with its distinctive periscope display.

Designed for the next wave of virtual reality devices, Battlezone gives you unrivalled battlefield awareness, a monumental sense of scale and breathless combat intensity. You are in the cockpit of a super weapon. Your instincts and senses respond to every threat on the battlefield as enemy swarms loom over you and super-heated projectiles whistle past your ears.

Battlezone features thrilling first-person tank combat set across gorgeous neon landscapes, immersing you fully within the cockpit of an ultra-advanced superweapon. In Battlezone you sense the battlefield through the power of VR, as enemy swarms loom over you and super-heated projectiles whistle past your ears. 


Battlezone is going back to the future! The PlayStation VR game is introducing Classic Mode - a gorgeous resurrection of the original arcade game - and it's FREE!

Fans can now relive the iconic wireframe world of 1980, except this time through the power of modern VR. Harking back to the arcade cabinet's original gameplay, you can even pick between Battlezone's modern control and two-track "retro" controls! Rack up high scores to top the leaderboards and prove your credentials as a true, CLASSIC arcade champion!  

FREE CAMPAIGN CONTENT! 

Classic Mode will be totally FREE when it's patched in on December 20th, and you'll find it separate from the Battlezone campaign in the Extras menu. The December 20 update will also add FREE CAMPAIGN CONTENT, including new mission types, maps and a brand new "Field Manual" codex.

NEW CUSTOMIZATIONS! 

Finally, if you've been hankering for ways to customize your Cobra, we've got you covered. The new update will also bring new skin packs to the PlayStation Store, a pack of custom horns to make yourself heard with, and bobbleheads including one for 2000AD's Judge Dredd - and a snowman! 

And there is plenty more content on the way to Battlezone over the coming weeks and months, so... stay tuned! 

The Rotberg Corporation: A glistening industrial complex dominating all that remains of the neon wastelands of Earth.

Humanity: Enslaved, exiled and on the edge of extinction.
