The company is best known for its pinball games that focus on virtual recreations of classic pinball machines, such as The Pinball Arcade.[3] It was announced in May 2018 that FarSight will no longer produce games licensed from Williams and Bally, leading to a loss of over 50 trademarked tables from their Pinball Arcade catalog and announced they will focus mainly on tables under the Stern Pinball license.[4][5]
