Star Wars: Dark Forces Remastered – Official Announcement Trailer
Star Wars: Dark Forces Remastered – Official Announcement Trailer
Get your first look at the remaster of the classic 1995 Star Wars first-person shooter Dark Forces, which is being developed by Nightdive Studios, the same team responsible for the recent remasters of Quake 2 and System Shock. Star Wars: Dark Forces Remastered is in development for all major platforms (PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch).
Okay, so every time I decide I'm going to play a retro game through emulation, a remaster is announced, giving me access and an opportunity to enjoy a better version of the game instead. It happened with Metroid Prime, Link's Awakening, Baten Kaitos, Trails from Zero/to Azure, FF pixel remasters, KOTOR, Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance, and now this I guess... So for the sake of everyone else, what retro games are worth adding to my list?
Look I'm just saying if you have the ability to conjure into our reality remasters and remakes of old games, I'm going to suck your fucking dick if we can get an Illusion of Gaia (snes) remaster sometime soon.
Or ya know whatever the bits may be.
What a bizarre "remaster". They've barely touched the actual game and instead focused on... making the cutscenes look worse?
Why did they not update the lighting? I feel like that’s a huge miss. I personally also don’t like the new art style on the cut scenes, the pixel art was beautiful
Nostalgia is a disease...
I am terminal lmao.
Not anxious to see those brown things in the water remastered to 4k tbh. I somehow failed out of the game every time at that point even in SVGA.
I hope I'm proven wrong, but I'm not sure this is the best title to receive the Nightdive treatment.
Apart for the dated visual, gameplay and overall game mechanics wise the game is very awkward by 2023 standards.
I'd rather them do this one really well than have them do the both of them at the same time. I love Dark Forces 2, it's the Star Wars game I grew up with. I haven't looked but I'm assuming Disney has some involvement due to the ownership and honestly, it makes sense they want to give it a shot at remastering these titles since canon tied in the Dark Troopers, both white and black versions from what I can tell.
Mostly what I'm excited for? Dark Forces 2 multiplayer... oh man, those were the days.
Dark Forces is the only classic FPS that ever gave me motion sickness.
