NFL Blitz Is Back In New Arcade1Up Cabinet Releasing This Fall

NFL Blitz, the beloved over-the-top football game that was a staple in the late '90s, is returning this fall as a home arcade cabinet from Arcade1Up. The new cabinet is dubbed NFL Blitz Legends and includes remastered versions of the first three games in the series: NFL Blitz, NFL Blitz '99, and NFL Blitz 2000: Gold Edition. NFL Blitz Legends is available to preorder now for $600 ahead of its early October release.

NFL Blitz Legends was made in partnership with the NFL, and Arcade1Up also worked with the Field Greats Association (FGA) to get real NFL legends in the games like they were originally. While it's unclear at this time if all of the players who appeared in the original games will be present in the cabinet versions, Arcade1Up provided a list of some of the stars who are on board:

  • Jerry Rice
  • Dan Marino
  • Deion Sanders
  • Cris Carter
  • Jerome Bettis
  • Terrell Davis

The cabinet artwork and design are based on the original cabinets that you may have seen in arcades more than 20 years ago. Like a lot of other Arcade1Up cabinets, it has a 17-inch LCD display, a light-up marquee, and is five feet tall. You can pair your NFL Blitz Legends cabinet with an $80 team-branded stool featuring the logo and color scheme of any of the 32 current NFL teams.
