Atari SA (formerly Infogrames Entertainment SA) is a French video game holding company headquartered in Paris. Once one of the largest video game companies in the world through an acquisition policy under Infogrames, Atari SA dealt with continuing pressures and difficulty finding investors which led to the company seeking bankruptcy protection under French law in January 2013 while subsidiaries in the United States sought Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection as well.[2] Since 2020, the company has seen a turnaround with a new focus on dealing with re-releases of older titles and the acquisition of companies that deal with the re-release of mainly abandonware video games.

Currently, Atari SA is made up of four mainstream divisions - Atari, Nightdive Studios, Digital Eclipse and Infogrames, alongside websites MobyGames and AtariAge. Through these divisions as well as under subsidiaries Atari Interactive and Atari, Inc.,[3] the company owns the rights to many video games held by companies including Accolade, GT Interactive, M Network, and Intellivision.
