Why Area 51 (1995) Needs to Be on GOG – The Most Underrated Light Gun Game Ever
Released in arcades in 1995 by Atari Games, Area 51 is a true cult classic that deserves a proper revival — and there’s no better place for that than GOG. This fast-paced light gun shooter combined over-the-top sci-fi action, digitized FMV-style graphics, and addictive gameplay into an unforgettable experience. Despite being overshadowed by other arcade giants like Time Crisis or House of the Dead, Area 51 carved out its own unique identity and deserves recognition as one of the most thrilling shooters of its time.
Set in the infamous military base overrun by alien-infected soldiers, Area 51 was pure ‘90s action: frantic shooting, secret paths, power-ups, and explosive chaos everywhere. The use of live-action characters, paired with gritty alien effects and a haunting atmosphere, gave the game an edge that still holds up in memory. Its mix of camp and intensity made it endlessly replayable in arcades and on its eventual home console ports.
Bringing Area 51 to GOG would preserve this gem for modern players, many of whom never got to experience its arcade magic. With optional mouse aiming or modern controller support simulating the light gun experience, it could thrive once again — especially for fans of classic on-rails shooters and retro gaming. It’s time to declassify Area 51 and let it invade our collections again.
