Arcade Paradise Swag Bag!

Arcade Paradise may just be my number one game of 2022. Which is why it was incredible that I had the opportunity to attend the game launch event in London. I received a press kit whilst I was there, otherwise known as the Arcade Paradise Swag Bag! I show off the awesome things I got in the press kit in the YouTube at the end of this blog post. It included an array of sweet retro technology like an actual real life working cassette tape. There was even a super radical secret item, that didn’t even fit inside the bag.

The event itself was an absolute blast, located in an event space in the grafitti tunnels beneath Waterloo Station. Genuinely one of the best things i’ve ever attended. Obviously, the game itself was all about retro technology and nostalgia. This was defintely reflected in the overall aeshetic of the event. Dotted about were some arcade machines about and even a live band there too. They had previously done some music work featured in the game so it was great to see them in real life.
