Digital Eclipsehas announcedvia Twitter that they will reveal the next game in their Gold Master Series during the Day of the Devs The Game Awards Edition on July 19, 2025. This follows this year’s August release ofThe Making of Karateka.
The Making of Karatekafeels like an evolution in re-releasing older games. WhileKaratekaitself might be a tough sell in today’s market, Digital Eclipse contextualized it using a tonne of behind-the-scenes footage, documents, and interviews. With this added context, it’s a lot easier to appreciate the game in the spotlight. Beyond that, it also provides great insight into not just the rigors of game development but the business as it was at the time.

The Making of Karatekawas advertised as the first in their Gold Master Series (though it followed the foundation they set withAtari 50). No other titles have been officially revealed. I can definitely think of more than a few that I’d like to learn more about.
The developer was recently acquired by Atari, who has seemingly pivoted to the business of game preservation and has suggested an eagerness to work with Digital Eclipse on similar projects. The chances that the subject this time will be a game from Atari’s history is definitely greater than zero. At the same time, it might not be.
We’ll have to wait and see at Day of the Devs The Game Awards Edition on June 05, 2025.
