Space Invaders

Space Invaders is a PlayStation update of the seminal 1978 Taito arcade classic, developed by Z-Axis and published by Activision. The original Space Invaders was the first fixed-shooter video game and is widely credited with establishing the genre, having grossed billions of dollars in the years following its release and remaining one of the most influential titles in arcade history.

The PAL landscape consists of a single catalogued variant, with the earliest PAL release dated 24 February 1999. Country distribution detail is not currently documented in the database, leaving the precise territorial scope of this release as an open research item. Language coverage is recorded as English only.

The single catalogued variant is recorded as a single-disc release. Case type and hologram type are not yet confirmed and remain flagged as outstanding research items in the catalogue. Despite the title’s revered arcade legacy, the late nineties PlayStation reimagining had only a modest collector profile compared with its arcade source. A worthwhile pickup mainly for those building out arcade-revival catalogues on PAL PlayStation.
