Activision was founded in 1979 by four former Atari programmers — David Crane, Alan Miller, Bob Whitehead, and Larry Kaplan — who were unhappy with their working conditions at the console maker. Their departure gave birth to the very first third-party publisher in video game history, a break that reshaped the industry. Nearly half a century later, the two companies are officially making up around this shared project.\n\n![Screenshot 2026-08-26 152808.jpg](https://media.recalbox.com/blog/2026-08-26-atari-2600-activision-cartouches-physiques-retrogaming-emulation-actu-news/46706496d18b-capture-d-ecran-2026-08-26-152808.jpg)\n\n### The details of the offer\n\nThe collection comes in three formats.\n\nTwelve **Standard Edition** cartridges, sold separately at $34.99 each (black cartridge + full-color manual): *Pitfall!*, *River Raid*, *MegaMania*, *Enduro*, *Kaboom!*, *H.E.R.O.*, *Keystone Kapers*, *Private Eye*, *Pressure Cooker*, *River Raid II*, *Pitfall II: Lost Caverns*, and *The Activision Decathlon*.\n\nFour **Deluxe box sets** at $249.99 each (colorful cartridge, embroidered patch, and exclusive pin per game), releasing in staggered waves over a year:\n\n- **Treasure Collection** (10 games, November 2026): Pitfall!, River Raid, MegaMania, Dragster, Freeway, Grand Prix, Chopper Command, Sky Jinks, Barnstorming, Dolphin\n- **Speed Collection** (10 games, Spring 2027): Enduro, H.E.R.O., The Activision Decathlon, Boxing, Checkers, Fishing Derby, Skiing, Laser Blast, Stampede, Tennis\n- **Secrets Collection** (9 games, Summer 2027): Keystone Kapers, Kaboom!, Private Eye, Starmaster, Spider Fighter, Seaquest, Bridge, Oink!, Ice Hockey\n- **Victory Collection** (10 games, Fall 2027): Pitfall II: Lost Caverns, River Raid II, Pressure Cooker, Plaque Attack, Robot Tank, Crackpots, Frostbite, Beamrider, Cosmic Commuter, Space Shuttle: A Journey Into Space\n\nA **Complete Collection** at $999.96 bundles all four box sets, with free shipping and 12 bonus metal trading cards.\n\nAll cartridges, standard and deluxe alike, are compatible with the modern Atari 2600+/7800+ as well as original 2600/7800 hardware.\n\n![Screenshot 2026-08-26 152913.jpg](https://media.recalbox.com/blog/2026-08-26-atari-2600-activision-cartouches-physiques-retrogaming-emulation-actu-news/2fe2aa0cc184-capture-d-ecran-2026-08-26-152913.jpg)\n\n### A collection… for collectors\n\nThe positioning is clearly aimed at the premium collector market rather than the casual player: at nearly $1,000 for the complete collection, this is far removed from the simple pleasure of putting *Pitfall!* back on the shelf. Staggering the releases across all of 2027 lets Atari keep attention on the project over time, but it also means a long wait for fans chasing titles like *Pitfall II* or *Beamrider*. That said, guaranteed compatibility with original hardware is a genuine plus for the retrogaming community, in a moment when nostalgic physical rereleases are clearly having a moment.\n\nPre-orders are open now on Atari's official [website](https://atari.com/pages/activision).\n\n*Sources: [Atari](https://atari.com/pages/activision), [RetroDodo](https://retrododo.com/atari-have-re-released-39-classic-activision-titles-on-physical-cartridges/), [GamesRadar+](https://www.gamesradar.com/hardware/retro/48-years-later-atari-is-finally-reuniting-with-activision-to-bring-back-cartridges-but-im-holding-out-for-more-than-pitfall/), [Time Extension](https://www.timeextension.com/news/2026/08/the-atari-x-activision-collaboration-celebrates-our-connected-history-atari-reveals-its-big-announcement)*\n\n[Enjoying the Recalbox team's work?

Activision a été fondée en 1979 par quatre anciens programmeurs d'Atari — David Crane, Alan Miller, Bob Whitehead et Larry Kaplan — mécontents de leurs conditions de travail chez le constructeur. Leur départ a donné naissance au tout premier éditeur tiers de l'histoire du jeu vidéo, une rupture qui a redéfini l'industrie. Près d'un demi-siècle plus tard, les deux marques officialisent leurs retrouvailles autour de ce projet commun.\n\n![Capture d’écran 2026-08-26 152808.jpg](https://media.recalbox.com/blog/2026-08-26-atari-2600-activision-cartouches-physiques-retrogaming-emulation-actu-news/46706496d18b-capture-d-ecran-2026-08-26-152808.jpg)\n\n\n### Le détail de l'offre\n\nLa collection se décline en trois formats.\n\nDouze cartouches **Standard Edition**, vendues séparément à 34,99 $ pièce (cartouche noire + manuel couleur) : *Pitfall!*, *River Raid*, *MegaMania*, *Enduro*, *Kaboom!*, *H.E.R.O.*, *Keystone Kapers*, *Private Eye*, *Pressure Cooker*, *River Raid II*, *Pitfall II: Lost Caverns* et *The Activision Decathlon*.\n\nQuatre **coffrets Deluxe** à 249,99 $ chacun (cartouche colorée, patch brodé et pin's exclusifs par jeu), sortant de façon échelonnée sur un an :\n\n- **Treasure Collection** (10 jeux, novembre 2026) : Pitfall!, River Raid, MegaMania, Dragster, Freeway, Grand Prix, Chopper Command, Sky Jinks, Barnstorming, Dolphin\n- **Speed Collection** (10 jeux, printemps 2027) : Enduro, H.E.R.O., The Activision Decathlon, Boxing, Checkers, Fishing Derby, Skiing, Laser Blast, Stampede, Tennis\n- **Secrets Collection** (9 jeux, été 2027) : Keystone Kapers, Kaboom!, Private Eye, Starmaster, Spider Fighter, Seaquest, Bridge, Oink!, Ice Hockey\n- **Victory Collection** (10 jeux, automne 2027) : Pitfall II: Lost Caverns, River Raid II, Pressure Cooker, Plaque Attack, Robot Tank, Crackpots, Frostbite, Beamrider, Cosmic Commuter, Space Shuttle: A Journey Into Space\n\nUn **Complete Collection** à 999,96 $ regroupe les quatre coffrets, avec livraison offerte et 12 cartes à collectionner métalliques en bonus.\n\nL'ensemble des cartouches, standard comme deluxe, est compatible avec l'Atari 2600+/7800+ modernes ainsi qu'avec le matériel original 2600/7800.\n\n![Capture d’écran 2026-08-26 152913.jpg](https://media.recalbox.com/blog/2026-08-26-atari-2600-activision-cartouches-physiques-retrogaming-emulation-actu-news/2fe2aa0cc184-capture-d-ecran-2026-08-26-152913.jpg)\n\n\n### Une collection… pour les collectionneurs\n\nLe positionnement est clairement pensé pour le marché du collector premium plus que pour le joueur occasionnel : à près de 1000 $ pour la collection complète, on est loin du simple plaisir de retrouver *Pitfall!* sur son étagère. L'échelonnement des sorties sur toute l'année 2027 permet à Atari d'entretenir l'attention autour du projet, mais impose aussi une longue attente aux fans qui visent des titres comme *Pitfall II* ou *Beamrider*. Reste que la compatibilité assurée avec le matériel original est un vrai point positif pour la communauté retrogaming, dans un contexte où les rééditions physiques nostalgiques ont clairement le vent en poupe.\n\nLes précommandes sont ouvertes dès aujourd'hui sur le site officiel d'[Atari](https://atari.com/pages/activision).\n\n*Sources : [Atari](https://atari.com/pages/activision), [RetroDodo](https://retrododo.com/atari-have-re-released-39-classic-activision-titles-on-physical-cartridges/), [GamesRadar+](https://www.gamesradar.com/hardware/retro/48-years-later-atari-is-finally-reuniting-with-activision-to-bring-back-cartridges-but-im-holding-out-for-more-than-pitfall/), [Time Extension](https://www.timeextension.com/news/2026/08/the-atari-x-activision-collaboration-celebrates-our-connected-history-atari-reveals-its-big-announcement)*\n\n[Vous appréciez le travail de l’équipe Recalbox ?
