Kaboom! New Activision and NeoGeo collections announced for Evercade

Two new Evercade cartridges are on their way, both due out in June for £19.99 each.

While neither Activision Collection 3 nor NeoGeo Arcade 4 come as a surprise, the latter does contain eight games over the past collection’s six, making it decent value for money. Activision Collection 3 meanwhile fills in a lot of gaps, including Keystone Kapers and Kaboom.

Here’s what we can expect, complete with descriptions from Blaze themselves:

NeoGeo Arcade 4:

  • 3 COUNT BOUT– A classic arcade wrestling game featuring over-the-top moves, powerful grapples, and dramatic championship bouts.
  • BASEBALL STARS 2 – Fast-paced, arcade-style baseball action with accessible controls and competitive gameplay.
  • BLAZING STAR – A visually stunning horizontal shoot ’em up packed with explosive effects, power-ups, and intense enemy waves.
  • FATAL FURY SPECIAL – One of the most beloved entries in SNK’s fighting game history, featuring refined mechanics and an iconic roster.
  • KING OF THE MONSTERS – A cult-classic brawler where giant monsters clash in city-destroying battles inspired by kaiju films.
  • METAL SLUG 4 – The explosive run-and-gun series returns with new weapons, enemies, and signature hand-drawn animation.
  • ROBO ARMY – A side-scrolling beat ’em up starring powerful androids battling through mechanical enemy forces.
  • THE KING OF FIGHTERS 2002 – A dream-match entry in the legendary fighting franchise, bringing together fighters from across the series.

  • Pressure Cooker – Build burgers according to the incoming orders, and make sure they get to the right customers in this fast-paced action-puzzle game.

The greatly upgraded Evercade Nexus handheld is planned for later this year, alongside a Banjo-Kazooie double cart. We also know that DOOM is coming to Evercade in some form. Together with today’s announcements, Blaze’s 2026 slate must be over halfway complete.
