The Arcade Archives release of “Assault Plus” is indeed scheduled for April 3, 2025. This version is a minor update to Namco’s original 1988 arcade game “Assault”. The game is known for its unique and addictive gameplay mechanic where players control the tank’s caterpillar tracks independently on the left and right sides.
