The Royal Mail’s Philip Parker said: “The UK has been at the forefront of the video games industry for decades.”
"In the 1980s and 90s young designers grappled with coding on the new microcomputers and set the template for the industry with iconic games.
"We celebrate some of their landmark creations on stamps."
Royal Mail chose the games with the help of gaming trade body UK Interactive Entertainment (Ukie).
"This collection celebrates a selection of the great British video games that have helped define both the national and global development scene over decades," said Ukie chief executive Dr Jo Twist.
"Video games are a key part of our cultural footprint and we're pleased to see their contribution recognised in such memorable style."
