Arguably the best Zen original is DOOM? It's in this pack along Skyrim and Fallout! If we married Bethesda Game Studios, our triplets would look like this.
Earth Defense, Mars and Paranormal have been in the library for a long time but that just means they aged like a fine wine. Check them out, especially the backglass area of Paranormal!
The Steam Winter Sale just hit the store, and we are taking our fair part out of it! There's an army of Pinball FX3 tables (and some of our other games ːsteamhappyː) on sale in there, so get in, and see if you see anything that'd look great under the tree!
Check out our developer page for more sweet deals on other games like CastleStorm, Infinite Minigolf, or KickBeat!
We wish you Happy Pinballing Holidays!
2019 A Year in Review - Zen Studios
Hi Pinballers!
We had a crazy year of Williams Pinball action - with 11 tables released. Huge shout out to everyone who practices the hobby of pinball with us and we'd love to have you with us next year.
We are usually up to a lot and this year was no different - so we are checking in with our showreel of 2019 for some light viewing at the end of the year.
Enjoy and thank you for playing with us.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS ERRBODY!
ps.: Poor Jeno has his face blocked out by the Youtube play button.

Come one, come all! Williams™ Pinball: Volume 5 now available in Pinball FX3!
Ladies and gentlemen, Zen Studios welcomes you to this year’s closing Williams Show!
Our available seats are at the PlayStation 4, Steam, Nintendo Switch, Mac, Xbox One & Windows 10 parlors! We also have places in the Williams Pinball Application booth, for Android and iOS visitors. Grab your hot pretzels! Hold on to that popcorn tightly! Because tonight, we have a marvel to behold!
And now… on with the show!
First, coming deep from the bazaars of middle-east, I present to you: the Tales of the Arabian Nights! A thrilling story of magic, wonders, and tales of the old, with one key piece missing: you! A brave hero, collecting the mysterious jewels with the help of their faithful companion, Dimira, to empower your scimitar for the upcoming battle against the Evil Genie, who’s holding our beloved princess captive. Help her, and your efforts shall be rewarded!
And the show goes on! Now, on to our second performance: the marvels of Cirqus Voltaire!
“No no, my dear, don’t let the ringmaster taunt you -- he does this all the time.” Pay attention, my guests, as the balls are locking in, the rope-dancers start to ascend their poles, getting ready to position. Watch as they confidently walk on their ropes, despite the fact that each conducts electricity! Watch the Boom balloon popping, the cannon blowing, the acrobats flying. And watch this! Should you feel worthy of our ranks, we dare you to challenge us, and should you topple our obstacles, the Cirqus Voltaire welcomes you as its artist!
And last, but not least, the final act of tonight:
Two little gophers set their eyes onto something much bigger than themselves in No Good Gofers… an entire golf course! You, my dear spectator, should bring your best golf skills here, as these little ones are relentless. They will do everything to wreck your scores, and make you suffer from bogey fives! Go for those Hole-in-Ones, try to not hit the ball out of bounds, and most importantly: watch out for those little gophers, because I can assure you: they have no good intentions.
That’s it for tonight, ladies and gentlemen. The show is over, but fear not!
The wonders of Volume 5 are available now!
See you next time!
Williams™ Pinball: Volume 5 is coming on December 10!
Surprise, surprise! Who would’ve thought that after the Halloween special we have one more trick up our sleeve? The colorful Williams™ library is getting another addition this year: meet the Williams™ Pinball: Volume 5! Three of the community’s wishes have been granted with these tables: Tales of the Arabian Nights, Cirqus Voltaire, and No Good Gofers!

- Tales of the Arabian Nights: Collect the Seven Jewels of the Arabian Nights while experiencing glorious tales like the “Tale of the Great Camel Race” or “Sinbad and the Rocs”. Wield Aladdin’s magic lamp, earn the help of Dimira, enchant your scimitar, and defeat the Evil Genie to save the Princess!
- Cirqus Voltaire: Marvel at the mysteries of the Cirqus! Meet jugglers, rope-dancers, and of course the Ringmaster himself in this late-’90s classic. Complete the 9 marvels of the table, so you can access the Wizard mode -- a thrilling test of your abilities. See if you are worthy of joining the famous Cirqus Voltaire!
- No Good Gofers: Bud and Buzz are here -- to absolutely wreck this golf course and manifest mayhem! Rockets flying, balls blazing out of bounds, and everyone trying to score that Hole-in-One! Will you master the course?

The classic Universal Monsters™ now haunt Pinball FX3 and Williams™ Pinball!
A Full Moon rises and awakens The Wolf Man, Creature from the Black Lagoon emerges from the depths, Frankenstein and his Bride are alive, The Mummy is haunting the pyramids, and Dracula is back from his coffin! Williams Pinball™: Universal Monsters Pack is available now on: - Steam - PlayStation 4 - Xbox One & Windows 10 - Nintendo Switch
Join the party with Dracula and his friends in the spookiest gig of the Fall, or take the Halloween feeling to a drive-in movie date!
The Monster Bash pinball table was released in July 1998, featuring several classic Universal Monsters forming a rock band. It became one of the highest-rated machines of all time, not surprisingly, as it has a superb layout, mad rules and insanely stackable modes.
Released in 1992, the Creature from the Black Lagoon pinball table got its theme from the classic movie of the same title, a film shot in 3D in the early 1950s. The table is set up as a drive-in cinema typical of the era, with features like a snack bar, a rude driver whose van blocks the screen, and of course the Creature, lurking in his lagoon.
It's that time of the year again: everyone is ready to pick up this year's trends in costumes, someone going a little bit out of their ways with something original, and here we are at Zen, gathering up some packs for you guys to treat yourself with on Halloween.
Prepare! Here be packs featuring horrors, carnivals, legends and mysteries from all around our collection!
Take a look at our partnership with Telltale Games and Robert Kirkman, in which we brought you, The Walking Dead Pinball table - a playfield of the most iconic locations from the game, including the St. John’s Dairy Farm, Travelier Motel, Bell Tower, Train & Level Crossing and more!
