Back in 2023, the Video Game History Foundation announced it was curating a digital library, which would allow users to access its vast collection of magazines, art books and more from the comfort of their homes. And while it didn't pop a date on when it would be available to the public at that time, it now has.

Writing on social media, the Video Game History Foundation revealed its digital library will be launching next week, on 30th January.
