Every Retro Game Coming to Current Generation Platforms in September 2018
PS4/Xbox One/PC
Unlike the Switch’s retro selection this month, other systems are almost devoid of retro re-releases. With huge AAA games like Dragon Quest XI, Spider-Man, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider releasing this month, that’s probably a smart move from publishers.
There is, however, one retro game heading to PS4 and PC that definitely deserves a mention: Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner MARS. Even though the game received a HD remaster on the PS3 and Xbox 360, Konami has decided to go ahead with another remaster of the second game, this time with 4K visuals and VR support. The original PS2 version of the game ran at a lowly 480i, and it can’t be understated how much of a leap in visual fidelity this new 2160p version is over the original. But if you really want to change the game, you’re going to want to strap on your VR headset of choice. Zipping around as a mech is fun enough in third-person, and I can’t begin to imagine how crazy it’s going to be in virtual reality.
