In July 2013, Tommo purchased many assets from Atari during their bankruptcy sale, including Deadly Dozen. The company later re-released it on Steam under their "Retroism" brand in 2015. By March 2020, the ownership of the title, alongside other Retroism games, was transferred over to the newly formed Ziggurat Interactive, who currently publish the game.

Ziggurat Interactive published Deadly Dozen Reloaded, a remaster of the original game for PCs and consoles. It was released for the PC via Steam and GOG.com in April 2022. Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions were released in later half of the year.
