Gauntlet’s Back! “Warrior Needs Food Badly!”
March 18, 2014 by brennon
Many folk hopefully remember the dungeon crawling classic Gauntlet right? Well, no fear if you don't because Arrowhead are bringing it back this summer with a revamped edition of this arcade adventure.
They have bought back the Warrior, Wizard, Elf and Valkyrie to start hacking and slashing their way through level upon level of monsters and treasure. Check out the trailer above for a snapshot of the gameplay.
Will you be delving back into the world of Gauntlet?
Warrior Needs Food Badly!
Could be fun. Never recall this game at all though… sorry.
Used to be a great game 30? years ago.
Yep – back in 1985! I remember playing a pretty random version of it when I was little but my memory of the Gauntlet series really only extends back to Seven Sorrows which was a PS2/Xbox title.
Ah that was quite fun it mindless. This looks like it’s going to be an ace little party game. Steam is full of these right now and they seem to hit the right button when it comes to peoples gaming tastes.
Kinda reminds me to get Magicka back and installed on my laptop actually.

One of my first c-64 games, looks like a cool reboot .. hordes of ghouls just like the original 🙂
I’m with you @hatamoto, I have fond memories of playing this on my Commodore 64 in the 1980s. I must say this new version looks like it is in keeping with the original, bring it on.
I lost many a quarter into Gauntlet in arcades.
I still remember people used to hang coats on the elf joystick to keep them from playing that speedy dink.
@acrizer I used to enjoy that game as a kid. I see that Gauntlet is making a return on the next gen PS4 and Xbox One, might be worth a look for old times sake.
