Publisher Atari and developers Adamvision Studios and SneakyBox have announced that Asteroids: Recharged, a fresh take on the classic arcade shooter Asteroids, is now available to purchase and download on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Series S consoles for $9.99. The original space shooter warps to the modern era!

Asteroids: Recharged has been reimagined for modern gameplay, with vibrant visuals, powerful new abilities, and another original soundtrack from award-winning video game composer Megan McDuffee.

The game creates a familiar, but revitalized and modern challenge to both old school and new high score chasers. And 30 unique and creative challenge levels take the space shooting game play into new territory, complete with local and global leaderboards.

An entirely new collection of power-ups -- including spread shots, rail guns, reflector shields, and more -- will help stave off splintering asteroids and aggressive UFOs. Co-op play lets you play with a friend, and ramps up the intensity as players do their best to coordinate and survive.

Asteroids: Recharged blasts off on Xbox consoles today for $9.99.
