| In 1985, Activision licensed ''Pitfall!'' to [[Sega]], which made an arcade version of ''Pitfall II: Lost Caverns''. The game, which is now quite rare, is thoroughly remade with a first level resembling the original ''Pitfall!'' a second level resembling the caverns of ''Pitfall II'' and later levels that were completely original.
