Battle Squadron was originally developed by Cope-Com for the Commodore Amiga Home Computer in 1989 and received numerous awards making it an instant Amiga Classic. In 2011 Come-Com released Battle Squadron for iOS mobile devices, and in 2012 for Android with our partner GoldenCode.eu.

We are now happy to announce that together with our partner GoldenCode.eu we are returning to the Amiga… making Battle Squadron available on Amiga OS 4.X, in addition to Mac and PC. Battle Squadron is available through both digital download and a pre-order special collectors edition with the signature from the original developers and the coder making it possible to return to Amiga OS 4.X.

The collectors edition contains all desktop versions: Amiga OS 4.X, Mac, and PC. The new desktop version is an exact replica of the original famed Amiga game, just as it was for iOS and Android. In addition, the desktop version has great new features… still matching the original retro style.

I’m definitely going to get this one, no doubt about that. Anyone else out there hungry for this game?

Have a good evening and thanks for reading!
