“That Was a Very Frank Interview.” A 61-Game Chat With the CEO of Atari

Telling the story of the last five years of Atari, one game at a time.

• Since taking charge in 2021, CEO Wade Rosen has overseen a prolific output at Atari, publishing 61 games at a cadence of nearly one release per month.
• Atari’s recent portfolio strategy has been characterized by a mix of high-performing titles, such as the 'Atari 50' retro collection, and underperforming projects like 'Atari Mania'.
• The company maintains a pragmatic approach to development, occasionally allowing teams to proceed with projects that are not expected to be significant commercial successes.
