Watch The Trailer Harking back to the nostalgia of retro gaming and the experience is key to Evercade’s makeup. The bespoke physical cartridge and collectible numbered clamshell case and full-colour manual give collectors a new and inexpensive way to add to their shelves and give retro gamers a new and modern way to share their memories and passions.
 
Following the success of the Evercade Handheld in 2020 and 2021, the new Evercade VS console brings a new way to play, with a dedicated TV console unit, and support for four controllers. Allowing people to play our catalogue of games with local multiplayer - just like it was back in our youth. Sat around a TV with friends, siblings, and challengers and having fun together.
 
The Evercade Handheld is available now along with cartridges 1-20 at all good retailers.
 
The Evercade VS and arcade cartridges 1-4 are available from December 8th in the UK and EU with some countries featuring later release dates due to local logistics issues.
