Atari Jaguars are rare, and when classic games see a new life on them, it’s worth noting. Songbird Productions and Eclipse Software, the original developers, are working on a brand new port of Wings Of Death, an iconic shoot 'em up originally released on Atari ST and Commodore Amiga back in 1990.

• The goal of the game involves guiding a wizard transformed into an insect through various levels with the ability to transform into different forms like an eagle, dragon, and griffin.
• Key features include 60FPS gameplay, high colour mode, and two versions of the soundtrack (one on cartridge, another on CD).

Some footage of the port was captured at JagFest2024 earlier in the year, and the release is currently scheduled for next year.
