A 1995 arcade racer that made you sit on a real leaning motorcycle just landed on Switch 2

Cyber Cycles launches today, August 20, 2026, in two versions: Arcade Archives ($14.99, Switch/PS4) and Arcade Archives 2 ($16.99, Switch 2/PS5/Xbox Series X|S).

The 1995 original ran on Namco's Super System 22 board and put players on a full-size cabinet that leaned left and right to steer, with separate throttle and brake controls.

Three selectable bikes — the beginner-friendly Anthias, the mid-tier NVR750R and the expert-only Wild Hog — handle differently enough to genuinely change how you play a track.

Arcade Archives 2 adds Time Attack Mode, VRR support and online rankings on top of the standard rewind, save states and difficulty options.

A $2.99 upgrade path exists from the base Arcade Archives version to Arcade Archives 2, so early buyers on Switch/PS4 aren't locked out of the newer platforms' features if they upgrade later.
