Today, the Video Game History Foundation launches early access to its digital archive of video game history research materials, available now at library.gamehistory.org.

Ever since we started in 2017, the Video Game History Foundation has been building a digital library to help the study of video game history. We’ve been collecting development documents, behind-the-scenes content, rare video game publications and catalogs, magazines, memorabilia, ephemera, and more.

After years of cataloging, processing, and digitizing our collections, we’re ready to open our (virtual) doors to the public for the first time.

The Myst "behind the scenes" footage alone is great to see. Very worthy of preservation.
