The popular British metal band Iron Maiden is the subject of Stern Pinball’s latest game, Legacy of the Beast.

Stern for the hills

Formed in 1975, Iron Maiden was instrumental in the wave of British heavy metal music and has since garnered a dedicated following all over the world. 

Players, aided by the band’s iconic mascot, Eddie, will try to defeat the beast and his minions across the game.

"Iron Maiden is one of the most influential bands of all time and we're excited to have Eddie join the ranks of Stern Pinball's rock and roll line-up," said Gary Stern, chairman and CEO of Stern Pinball.

The pro, premium, and limited edition models feature hand-drawn art by illustrator and Iron Maiden fan Jeremy Packer. All models include 12 Iron Maiden songs, including Run to the Hills, Can I Play With Madness and Fear of the Dark.

The premium and limited edition models also feature an interactive sarcophagus ball lock, a motorised secret tomb entrance, a controlled middle pharaoh laser-cut metal ramp that raises to reveal the underworld scoop, a dual sensing Newton ball and two custom Eddie figures. The company will only be selling 500 units of the game’s limited edition.
