Play Acclaim Showcase Is Coming In September
"Play Acclaim is slated to be streamed on the company's official YouTube channel on September 10 11:30 AM PT/2:30 PM ET. The teaser video for Play Acclaim features several classic games the original company brought to consoles in the '90s, including Mortal Kombat 2, NBA Jam, Terminator 2, and more. It notably ends with some of Neo's final lines from The Matrix."
""We're here to take the energy and chaos that made Acclaim unforgettable and channel it into something new. The old screens are cracking, and what's coming through is something exciting and different ... You can't rewrite the past, but you can build upon it. This is about owning our story and moving it into a future that feels bold, energetic, and completely fresh.""
Earlier this year a revived Acclaim returned, and the company scheduled a Play Acclaim showcase for September 10 at 11:30 AM PT/2:30 PM ET to unveil its first new titles in over two decades. The teaser highlights several classic '90s console games, including Mortal Kombat 2, NBA Jam and Terminator 2, and ends with some of Neo's final lines from The Matrix. Acclaim's CEO said the company aims to channel the energy and chaos that made Acclaim memorable into something new rather than chasing the past. The relaunch pledged support for indie developers and to reignite classic franchises, while new leadership includes Jeff Jarrett and several entertainment and investment partners.
