Nintendo announced the re-release during its Nintendo Direct Mini presentation earlier today, but is also available for digital download on PlayStation 4 for $19.99.

A re-release of 1999 Nintendo 64 game Star Wars Episode I: Racer was also announced during the presentation, which is coming to the PlayStation 4 as well.

The racing game based on the podracing scene from Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace will feature “single and multiplayer modes,” according to a press release, and has a release date of Spring 2020.

The game originally released for Nintendo 64, PC, Mac, and Game Boy Color in 1999, followed by a Dreamcast port in 2000. The PC version was made available again for modern computers by GOG in 2018, but multiplayer was still limited to a LAN connection.
