XENO CRISIS And TANGLEWOOD Are Coming To The Evercade Handheld!

The Evercade’s library continues to grow as a new cartridge has just been making it the 12th announced cartridge for the system. This new cartridge features Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood, both modern released Sega Genesis titles. The inclusion of these titles reaffirms the Evercade team’s commitment to bring new titles to the platform as well as old. Both Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood for the Evercade are based on their Sega Genesis releases and will run on the systems Genesis emulation.

We’re very excited to have the opportunity to bring Xeno Crisis to the excellent Evercade handheld, a device we’ve been monitoring since we first heard about it. Having tested Xeno Crisis on the Evercade we were impressed not only with the build quality, but also by the standard of the emulation, and it is quite possibly the best way to play the Mega Drive version in portable form. The Evercade team are as passionate as we are about retro gaming, and we hope that this evolves into a long-term partnership.

The Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood cartridge is expected to ship in Q3 2020 alongside the recently announced Atari Lynx Collection 1 cartridge. I have yet to play Xeno Crisis or Tanglewood myself but both have been widely praised since release. Now that they will be available for Evercade perhaps this is the perfect opportunity for me to jump in and give them a try!

What do you all think about the possibility of playing these games on the Evercade?
