What is happening now

Berzerk is a classic arcade shooter originally released in 1980 that pioneered real-time action gameplay with its maze-based combat and distinctive robotic antagonist. The game has maintained cultural significance as a foundational title in the shooter genre. Recently, the game received renewed attention through a new port developed by Pixel Forge, which competed as an entry in the MSXDev26 competition. This adaptation aims to recapture the high-tension gameplay that defined the original arcade experience for modern platforms.
