Players collect the aliens' weapons and use their fighters to defend against missiles and suicide runs through infinite levels.
In a tribute to the arcade classic, there are special Challenge Stages during which the player can earn tons of bonus points.
Players will even be able to retrieve captured fighters from the descending Galaga Commander to double their firepower.
Features include 3D ships, enemies and landscapes as well as power-ups and special weapons.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks Galaga: Destination Earth for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Galaga: Destination Earth to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 2000.
