The Pinball Arcade is a pinball game.
Key points
- Platform for digitally-recreated pinball machines.
- Bally and Williams tables are no longer available to purchase since June 30, 2018 due to current license holder's decision to not renew their contract with FarSight.[1] (Check reference for the full list of removed tables.)
General information

- Internet Pinball Database - A huge database dedicated to pinball games and machines

DLC and expansion packs
- For the sake of simplicity, this section will mainly be based on the Steam release of the game. The names column will cover release seasons (with one important exception) and the notes column will have the pinball machines (tables) affiliated with each season.
- All tables can be purchased separately from their seasons as "Table Packs" (either as individual tables or in pairs of two tables). (See the Tables section on the Wikipedia article for more info.)
- All seasons and most tables are available in a pro variant, which provides access to additional features such as operator's menus, custom balls, etc. at a higher price than standard tables.
- Steam release free-to-play with a full table included, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.
- All unowned tables can be played for free up to their lowest high score value, with one select table from an earlier season temporarily available for full standard play as a "Free Table of the Month" (with advertisements shown before each game).
