After making an appearance on Switch back in 2023, IGS Classic Arcade Collection is about to make the jump to PC.
For those unaware – and you’ll be forgiven if that’s the case – IGS (International Game System) are a Taiwanese company who creates arcade and PC games for the Chinese market. They’re still very much active, having recently dabbled with the Asphalt racing series. They also released Spectral vs. Generation on PS2 and PSP, which managed to make it to Europe via budget publisher Midas. So, they did have some presence in this region.
We digress. IGS Classic Arcade Collection includes eight games which appear mostly of the beat’em up variety and are largely centred around Asian folklore. They’ll include online play, leaderboards, save states, and difficulty options.
- Knights of Valour: Super Heroes
- Knights of Valour Plus
- Knights of Valour 2 – Nine Dragons
- Oriental Legend
- Oriental Legend Spooky
- Martial Masters
- The Gladiator
- Demon Front
Many of these date to the late ‘90s and early noughties – with Demon Front being a Metal Slug clone released in 2002, and beat’em up The Gladiator dating to 2003.
Look out for H2’s IGS Classic Arcade Collection on Steam later this year.
