Double Fine by me!
[Update:“Psychonautsis coming out soon, but not this week,” a Sony representative wrote in an update to the company’s weekly releases post. “Apologies for the error. Stay tuned for final timing!”]
Back in December, when Double Fine Productions announcedPsychonauts 2is a thing that’s happening, Destructoid asked company founder Tim Schaferif a remaster was also in the cards.
Schafer said that while his studio discusses the topic a lot, it “would involve a lot of remodeling” — way more than, say, Double Fine’s recent remasters ofGrim FandangoandDay of the Tentacle.
The Double Fine boss seemed more keen on the idea of taking advantage of Sony’s then-recently announced emulation software, which has been used to bring PlayStation 2 titles to PlayStation 4.
Back then, Schafer called the prospect of going that route an “exciting possibility,” but now that thePlayStation Bloghas confirmed a slightly enhanced version of the classic platformer will be re-releasing on PlayStation 4 in North America this Tuesday, I suppose it’s now more of an ‘exciting reality.’
