Galaga 30th Collection is an iOS arcade video game collection by Namco Bandai. It was made to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Galaga arcade game.
It allows users to play remakes of the games in the Galaga series. It is free to download and comes with Galaga's prequel, Galaxian. The remakes of Galaga, Gaplus, and Galaga '88 are available as in-app purchases either separately or as a bundle. The graphics from the original games are shaded to look "glossy", and music is added to parts that didn't have music in the original games. The application also has a one and a half minute long CGI video that plays as an intro before the title screen, and it features "Galaga points", collected as the games are played and used to unlock various consumable power-ups and special arcade cabinet designs, including the original art for each game.
