Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Remaster Delayed
Argonaut Games’ highly anticipated Croc: Legend of the Gobbos remaster, set to release this month, has been delayed until the first quarter of next year. The nostalgic 3D platformer, originally launched 27 years ago, took players on an adventure through Gobbo Valley to rescue friends from the evil Baron Dante.
Resurrection of Argonaut Games
The news of the remaster came as a surprise to many, considering Argonaut Games closed in 2004 due to financial difficulties. However, the company has made a comeback as a “boutique publisher” under new leadership, with co-CEOs Gary Sheinwald and Mike Arkin at the helm. This resurrection marks a new chapter for the studio, aiming to deliver high-quality games to fans.
Reasons for Delay
The decision to delay the release was made to ensure the game meets the high standards expected by fans. Argonaut Games wants to add final touches to enhance the graphics, update control mechanics, and provide an authentic gameplay experience. Despite the disappointment of the delay, the studio is committed to delivering a polished product that will truly delight players.
What to Expect
When Croc: Legend of the Gobbos finally launches next year, players can look forward to enhanced high-definition graphics, modern control mechanics, and a curated digital museum called the Crocipedia. The game will be available on various platforms at a price of $29.99 USD for the digital edition, $39.99 for the physical edition on PS5 and Switch, and $129.99 for the Collector’s Edition, which includes exclusive items for die-hard fans.
As fans eagerly await the return of Croc, the delay serves as a reminder of the studio’s commitment to delivering a top-notch gaming experience. Stay tuned for updates on the release date and get ready to embark on a nostalgic journey with the beloved reptile.
