More about the Bitmap Bureau Collection

The Bitmap Bureau Collection brings together 3 Cult Classic Bitmap Bureau games, each dedicated to its own genre of Retro throwback gameplay.


BEAT ‘EM UP! Final Vendetta is a side-scrolling beat ‘em up, paying homage to the iconic arcade titles of the 80’s and 90’s such as Double Dragon and Final Fight. Playable either in solo or co-op mode, Final Vendetta pulls no punches, with a unique story, four different game modes and a thumping dance/techno soundtrack by Featurecast which also features four exclusive tracks from 90’s chart-topping electronic dance duo, Utah Saints.


HACK ‘N’ SLASH! Battle Axe is an arcade top-down hack & slash featuring high-quality visuals created by veteran pixel artist Henk Nieborg, true to form game mechanics, and music from the legendary VGM composer Manami Matsumae – retro gamers rejoice!


SHOOT ‘EM UP! Xeno Crisis is an arena shooter in which up to two players take control of battle-hardened marines embarking on a deadly mission to confront an alien menace! Run and gun your way through thousands of adversaries, searching for survivors, and ultimately facing the origin of the outpost's demise.
