Evercade getting Xeno Crisis/Tanglewood combo cart

Upcoming handheld Evercade just keeps pumping out the announcements, with the latest being for a double cart with Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood.

Action to go

Evercade has a ways to go before it actually launches this spring. It sounds like a seriously fun little handheld though, as it promises to offer a wide range of classic games. Even better, and in keeping with the retro feel, these games come on compilation cartridges.

That brings us to today’s announcement too, as Evercade has made their latest cart official. The 12th in the library-to-be, this new addition includes two games, Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood.

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.”

Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood won’t be making launch for Evercade, but will still be along later this year. Expect the duo to land in quarter 3, 2020.
