DuckTales Remastered Comes Out August 13
Posted on July 19, 2013 at 9:04 am
Classic NES platformer DuckTales is being remade for a trendy audience this year by the 2D platforming masters at WayForward. It was only given a vague Summer 2013 launch date when it was announced at PAX East earlier this year, but now we all know the sport is coming next month.
Capcom announced today that DuckTales Remastered would be hitting the PS3, Wii U and PC on August 13. Unfortunately, the sport won’t be out on Xbox 360 until 9/11. The delay may very well be via Xbox Live Arcade’s slots being filled all throughout August as a result of Summer of Arcade.
DuckTales Remastered may be available on all platforms for $14.99. In case you feel like spending $5 more and own a PS3, you may get the PS3 exclusive retail edition of the title that includes a download code and a collector pin for $19.99. The retail edition will launch a little in a while August 20.
To coincide with the announcement of the game’s release, Capcom has released a brand new video cleverly titled “Wayforward Duckumentaries” that goes into how the developers updated the NES classic for contemporary hardware. It also covers how Wayforward nailed the “authentic Disney look and feel” for the sport. Spoilers: They contracted some of the original artists from the DuckTales TV series.
