Antstream Arcade is the retro gaming-focused cloud gaming platform that currently offers 1300+ games. However, the platform has just confirmed a list of 41 retro games that will be leaving Antstream Arcade soon. This list includes fan-favorite games like Earthworm Jim and obscure classics like MDK. Let’s take a look at the full list.
Why Do Games Leave Antstream Arcade?:
Games are added to Antstream Arcade every Tuesday. However, Antstream also has to periodically remove games due to licensing agreements expiring. The most notable example of this was when we saw 27 games published by WB Games removed from Antstream Arcade due to an inability to renew the contract.

This is definitely quite a few titles and, notably, a number of these titles come from the game publisher Interplay Entertainment who published games like Earthworm Jim and Clay Fighter back in the 1980s and 1990s. It’s always a shame to see a game leave Antstream Arcade, but this does also mean Antstream probably has some new games coming to the service in 2024. Let us know what you think about these removals on social media.
