Scheduled for the 29th anniversary of the release of Yars’ Revenge on the Atari 2600, that would have put a May release date for the on-rails shooter reboot. Instead it quietly slipped out to Xbox Live sometime today.
This year Atari brings back one of the more imaginative titles from the primitive days of console gaming – Yars’ Revenge. This video features a 10-second swath of gameplay that shows the reboot will be an on-rails shooter.

Atari is reviving the Atari 2600 space shooter Yar’s Revenge as a downloadable game next year which, so far, seems devoid devoid of giant chromed flies and filled with anime-inspired mech girls.
