The Battlezone franchise is a series of games spanning multiple genres, of which several have used simply the name "Battlezone". The original game, developed by Atari was heralded as one of the earliest first person, 3D and virtual reality games and was ported and remade on a variety of other platforms. In the late-90s the game's name was licensed to Activision, who produced a small strategy series of their own with it, and in the mid-late 2000s two further arcade titles were published by Atari. In July 2013 the franchise was purchased by Rebellion Developments following Atari's bankruptcy, and multiple future releases are planned.
