The current line-up at ZedLabz covers the Zool Mega Drive reissue programme, the Astro Burn deluxe gatefold vinyl and the wider 33 Games catalogue as releases come online. Every title in the current range is a pre-order shipping Summer 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eZedLabz is an authorised stockist of 33 Games. The full 33 Games pre-order programme on our shop sits inside the wider \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/pre-order\"\u003eZedLabz pre-order collection\u003c\/a\u003e alongside other vendor pre-orders, and the canonical 33 Games hub lives at \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/33-games\"\u003e\/collections\/33-games\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy we stock 33 Games\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe took 33 Games on as a partner because the founders carry the same standard for premium physical products that we try to hold across the ZedLabz retro range. The brand is built on real craft experience and a clear collector-first philosophy, and the early conversations with the team made it clear this was a release programme worth backing properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe relationship goes a step further than a typical stockist arrangement. ZedLabz carries the 33 Games retail range, and in parallel we supply 33 Games with components needed for certain title releases where our retro production capability fits the build. That makes this a two-way partnership across both sides of the catalogue, with each small business supporting the other to make the releases land properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFour things keep the brand on our shelves:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReal partnerships with classic retro licence holders.\u003c\/strong\u003e 33 Games is developing licensed programmes directly with the original rights holders of cult retro titles, starting with Gremlin Graphics' Zool. Working with the people who hold the licence (rather than producing unlicensed reproduction cartridges) is what places these releases inside the game's history rather than as a tribute to it. It is also what gives the editions long-term collector value: an authentic, properly authorised piece of the title's catalogue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA clear roadmap of premium related products built around each title.\u003c\/strong\u003e Each 33 Games release sits at the centre of a wider, deliberately curated collector range. The Zool programme is the clearest current example: an authentic Mega Drive cartridge at the core, with the soundtrack on cassette, the wider Gremlin Interactive soundtrack on deluxe gatefold vinyl, the Bitmap Books hardcover, the hard enamel pin badge, the premium trading card set and the foil reservation card built around it. The roadmap widens further as additional titles come online.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoutique scarcity, not artificial scarcity.\u003c\/strong\u003e Print runs are small and capped at edition level. The Zool Premium Collector's Edition and Ultimate Archive Edition are both strictly limited boutique production runs, with the Ultimate Archive Edition being the scarcer of the two. The companion vinyl releases are strictly limited pressings. The reservation-window foil trading card is included only with qualifying early orders and is not sold separately afterwards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA clear publishing standard across every release.\u003c\/strong\u003e 33 Games operates under four stated principles: creative integrity, collector appeal, partnership with rights holders, and presentation. The result is a catalogue where the box, the printed materials, the included extras and the format choices feel deliberate rather than thrown together.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe current 33 Games line-up at ZedLabz\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA short tour of what we carry, by title.

Each piece is produced inside the same 33 Games release window as the main editions, with the same archival standard and the same rights-holder partnership behind it. The companion pieces work three ways: as standalone collector objects on the shelf, as a way to deepen a Premium Collector's Edition order with more of the Gremlin Interactive heritage, or as singular pickups for Zool fans who already own the game and want a printed, audio or pin-form object from the same licensed programme. None of the companion pieces are being reprinted: they exist only inside this 33 Games release window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZool Premium Trading Card Set.\u003c\/strong\u003e A set of 12 collector trading cards printed on 350gsm Magno Silk stock.

ZedLabz carries the \u003cstrong\u003eAstro Burn Deluxe Gatefold Vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e as part of the pre-order programme: the original game soundtrack by Venice Bleach pressed on translucent orange heavyweight vinyl in a deluxe gatefold sleeve, strictly limited to 250 pressings. The wider Astro Burn physical edition (the Collector's and Archive boxed releases) is a Kickstarter-tier reward and is being delivered through the Beyond the Pixels Kickstarter campaign rather than direct retail. We carry the vinyl. The boxed game itself ships through the Kickstarter route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe wider 33 Games catalogue\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e33 Games has further titles in the pipeline that aren't yet open for pre-order at retail. \u003cem\u003eMithra\u003c\/em\u003e, a cryptic adventure with cult-investigation framing, and \u003cem\u003eSleepytime Village\u003c\/em\u003e, a hand-drawn point and click adventure, are both named on the 33 Games release roadmap. We expect those to surface as pre-orders in future waves and will add them to this collection as they open. For now this hub focuses on the Zool programme and Astro Burn vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInside the Zool pre-order: two editions explained\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two Zool editions cover different collector intents. A short retailer breakdown to help you choose:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ePremium Collector's Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e is the deluxe essential edition. It is the format you want if your goal is to own Zool on an authentic Mega Drive cartridge with a properly produced clamshell case, a printed guide booklet and a small set of premium printed extras. The cartridge is region free, so the same cart runs on Sega Mega Drive (PAL and Japan), Sega Genesis (US), the Sega Nomad and most third-party or clone consoles capable of accepting Mega Drive \/ Genesis cartridges. It presents on the shelf as a considered, beautifully made boxed game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eUltimate Archive Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e is the curated definitive edition. It contains everything in the Premium Collector's Edition, plus the deluxe archive-grade box, the Bitmap Books hardcover, the translucent green soundtrack cassette, the numbered and signed certificate, the heavyweight collector's coin and the die-cut coin wallet. It is the format you want if you are buying Zool as a piece of video game history rather than just a cartridge release. It is the scarcer of the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth editions ship Summer 2026 from 33 Games' UK production run. Pre-order pricing and Klarna pay-in-three are visible on the live ZedLabz product pages as those go live.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich edition fits which collector?\u003c\/strong\u003e Two profiles in particular suit the Ultimate Archive Edition. The first is the long-term collector who wants a single statement piece on the shelf and intends to keep the edition as a sealed collector's item, the kind of release where the presentation, the certificate, the coin and the archive box are the point. The second is the Zool enthusiast who wants to dive deeper into the title's heritage: the Bitmap Books hardcover, the soundtrack cassette including Patrick Phelan's newly created remix and the wider archive presentation together carry far more of the Zool and Gremlin Interactive story than the Premium Collector's Edition alone. It is also the scarcer of the two formats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Premium Collector's Edition is the right fit for the buyer whose primary interest is the game itself. The authentic Mega Drive cartridge, the clamshell case, the printed guide booklet and the premium art cards are sized for a Mega Drive collector who plays the games they buy. It still presents beautifully on the shelf, and it is the more available of the two, but the focus is on the core release rather than the wider archive layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout 33 Games as a publisher\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e33 Games operates across two connected sides. The shop side produces and sells boutique physical editions, collector specials and companion products direct to collectors and via authorised stockists like ZedLabz. The studio side works with developers, licensors and rights holders to shape physical propositions, collector products, launch assets and Kickstarter campaigns. The same publishing standard applies across both sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe brand's working position is summarised on their \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/33-games.com\/about\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAbout page\u003c\/a\u003e as \"from digital to forever\": the case for permanence in a market increasingly shaped by downloads, subscriptions and disappearing storefronts. The Zool programme is a clean illustration: a 1993 cartridge-era title returned to physical form with the original creative team involved, archival presentation, and a print run sized to feel like a release rather than mass merchandise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor ZedLabz collectors this matters because the Zool reissue sits alongside our wider retro catalogue. Mega Drive cartridges, GBA and DMG mods, controller upgrades and modding tools are the everyday range. 33 Games adds a layer of properly produced collector releases on top of that catalogue, with the publishing rights, original-team involvement and archival sensibility that the wider retro market often lacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePre-orders, shipping and what to expect\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery product on this hub is currently a pre-order shipping Summer 2026.
