Fans of the developer of the Argonaut developer, the hotly remembered 3D platform game: Legend of the Gobbos are in an explosion of nostalgia; After a little delay, his previously announced remaster received a release date and is being launched for PC, Xbox, PlayStation and Switch on April 2.
Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, for the uninitiated (or young), launched for the original playstation in 1997, taking the players, with the appearance of the starting crocodile, on a trip through the Gobbo Valley in an attempt to free their friends from the evil magician Baron Dante. The resulting adventure was not exactly A classic of the genre, but certainly had fans.
And now, Argonaut, who resurrected last year, 20 years after his original closure, is reviewing Croc’s first output with a nostalgia update. It promises “high definition vibrant graphics, modern control and a camera system, and a refined game mechanic” as the players venture into “beautifully recreacted” levels.
That is together with the incorporation of a crocypedia: a “carefully curing” digital museum that draws the development of the original game through design documents, conceptual art, animation tests, musical clues prior to release and interviews with past and present developers.
If all that fills you with the vertiginous warmth of the past memories, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos is launched digitally for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch and PC through GOG on April 2, where you will cost $ 29.99 USD.
