Electronic Arts to Release 25 Classic PC Games on Steam

Electronic Arts (EA) has announced the release of 25 classic PC titles across Steam, GOG, and the EA App. The collection features 'Anniversary Editions' of popular franchises such as Road Rash and Wing Commander, which have been updated for modern systems while preserving their original creative intent. These updates were made possible by the discovery of a physical media vault containing thousands of legacy assets. The restoration process involved digitizing Betacam, VHS, and D1 tapes to recover master FMV sequences, resulting in over 1,500 restored scenes. The Wing Commander editions also integrate community-made mods. Pricing for these titles is set at $9.99 for the Road Rash and Wing Commander Anniversary Editions, while other classics like Ultima and Crusader will retail for $4.99.
