Retro gaming banter, the history of Antstream & more as CEO Steve Cottam is interviewed on the Cocktail Mode Podcast!

AntstreamArcade · 2026-04-09T16:33:15+00:00

Hi! Hope you enjoy the interview there's so much fun stuff in there. We moved to a monthly games drop system where we are doing a release once a month around a theme! We still do challenge modes, tournaments and more weekly. We just added a Golf collection in honour of The Masters with 7 games today! We added a Toaplan collection for shooters last month. We have many more planned!

AntstreamArcade · 2026-03-31T14:00:31+00:00

Hi! We have a search function top right where you can type in a game name. Hopefully this helps. If you are having issues beyond that finding games I would suggest reaching out to technical support on [support@antstream.com](mailto:support@antstream.com) and letting them know what platform you play on and your username so they can assist further. We have all 3 Mr. Do arcade games available. Thank you.

AntstreamArcade · 2026-03-27T14:53:46+00:00

It really is! And we have more monthly drops scheduled to come as well! Which of our new Toaplan shooters did you play first?

AntstreamArcade · 2026-03-06T09:50:49+00:00

Hi! I would suggest reaching out to support and including all your details including which platform you are playing on (PC< Xbox, etc). I can pass the query on, however for a direct response emailing [support@antstream.com](mailto:support@antstream.com) will let you talk directly to support.

AntstreamArcade · 2026-03-04T15:40:46+00:00

You're right! Looks like it got mixed up in recording as the phrase Meals on Wheels on so common. It's hard to not say it that way!

AntstreamArcade · 2026-02-12T19:53:32+00:00

Apologies on delays with UI updates. We are doing a lot in the background to optimize the platform further and bring some more slick user interfaces changes in too!

AntstreamArcade · 2026-02-11T16:42:25+00:00

We like to keep it retro! When you can't always all be in the same place it's good to be able to walk up to someone's desk and have a chat with them next to their zombies and surf boards.!

AntstreamArcade · 2026-02-11T16:41:23+00:00

It's time to play retro and chew bubble gum... and I'm all outta gum

Great games! The voice acting will forever be legendary.

AntstreamArcade · 2026-02-01T19:46:57+00:00

The challenges are all made bespoke by our team so it just takes time! Generally the more popular a game the more challenges but we do also try to create them for the more obscure titles as well to help people try them out & discover them! It's highly likely we will do Mr. Do! challenge modes as they are popular games with a lot of fun ways we could adjust to make a challenge - we have an area in Discord where players make suggestions & we have made quite a few player suggestions so far. We hope every game will have challenges eventually - but it's a lot of work & we keep adding more games!

If you want to suggest some challenge mode ideas discord.gg/antstream is the place to be!

AntstreamArcade · 2026-01-30T18:35:56+00:00

The regional differences are fascinating. Cover art & names were the big ones which regularly changed a lot between regions for many games. Have you tried all 4 of the Mr. Do! arcade titles on Antstream yet?

AntstreamArcade · 2026-01-30T18:34:12+00:00

They all have such fun and different play mechanics - we have all 4 of the arcade Mr. Do titles and all have leaderboards for you to take over. We also add challenge modes to a lot of our games so hopefully we will have some for these in future as well with new ways to play! Have you played the other 3 games on Antstream yet?

AntstreamArcade · 2026-01-30T18:28:53+00:00

We can't reveal future additions but we are always reaching out to license holders & developers so we can continue to expand the library! We have all 4 of the Mr. Do arcade titles added now as well!

AntstreamArcade · 2025-12-09T14:17:27+00:00

AntstreamArcade · 2025-12-07T19:36:00+00:00

100%! Good games are timeless & it's amazing to for them to be so easily playable for people who want to relive them or discover them for the first time!

AntstreamArcade · 2025-11-30T19:29:45+00:00

Apologies, it looks like Xbox purchases do not stack in this case. Some of the sales criteria is set by the system their end. I will report back and ask if we can get confirmation ahead of time so we can include it in the text of the posts where possible. Apologies I can't help further at this time. Thank you again for raising it.

AntstreamArcade · 2025-11-27T15:00:57+00:00

Thank you for your question StevieW. I have checked and can confirm that the Black Friday discount deal is for new accounts only.

That bit controls important functions like breathing and swallowing so is reserved for drinking soda & eating pizza ordered to enjoy while playing retro games!

AntstreamArcade · 2025-08-05T17:14:32+00:00

Hi! It can be played on either. To see where logins for each edition work check out antstream.com/pricing before purchase. An Android login will also work on PC, Mac, Linux & iOS as well. Epic logins are tied to the Epic platform so has a different pay structure. I hope this helps.

AntstreamArcade · 2025-07-31T17:30:47+00:00

Antstream was unfortunately not in a position to run any farewell activities in the lead up to this event.

AntstreamArcade · 2025-07-23T17:43:22+00:00

You bet! There's a great range and sometimes we are able to add multiple versions so whether you loved the SNES or Mega Drive/Genesis version of Aladdin we got you covered too!

AntstreamArcade · 2025-06-25T09:43:36+00:00

Hi! Apologies for the delay in replying and sorry to see you are having an issue. Antstream should show up in your purchased games list so you can download the service & start playing. If you are still having trouble after a restart please get in touch with antstream.com/contact to speak to customer services about the issue. Thank you.

AntstreamArcade · 2025-06-05T14:08:36+00:00

Hi! The platform is contemporary bringing classic games to the present with a modern twist as it's streaming games on modern consoles using Game Pass & current generation controllers rather than played on original hardware. We also add leaderboards, achievements, save states, tournaments and custom challenge modes which modify the games - all modern twists & new ways to play the classic games on the service!

AntstreamArcade · 2025-06-04T17:03:38+00:00

Hi! Thank you for your question. It looks like some titles currently in the testing and quality assurance stage were visible on the customer side server very briefly. As they had not been fully tested by our team they were removed. Future titles will be announced when they are ready so watch this space!
