A more generous and structured Gauntlet IV with an original quest mode. The best Mega Drive version of the series, well worth a try in co-op.

Collector interest

Gauntlet IV is the USA/EU edition of Atari/Tengen's game, the first official Megadrive port of the Gauntlet franchise. Collector value comes from this founding position.

Is Gauntlet IV still worth playing in 2026?

A Mega Drive adaptation of the arcade hack and slash classic by Tengen, Gauntlet IV offers the classic formula with four playable classes and a wide variety of enemies in procedural dungeons. The four player cooperative mode remains excellent and the quest mode adds welcome progression. Visually dated by now, the title keeps undeniable charm and remains an excellent cooperative game for evenings with friends on Mega Drive today still for old school arcade fans without any hesitation truly here.
