[Kerotan]

Such a good game but I'm not sure I'd be bothered with a remake.

 

[yet_another_alt]

I liked the game but why? It's not like it looks bad nowadays.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Damn, so they're really remaking this.

 

[Phase]

I guess we're remaking indies now.

 

[adamsapple]

That trailer looks exactly like my brain remembers the original.

 

[solidus12]

I'm willing to bet that Josef Fares has nothing to do with this.

 

[Robb]

Good for new players I guess but it's nothing I'd want to replay.

 

[LectureMaster]

That trailer looks exactly like my brain remembers the original.

LMAO, exactly. I was like "isn't this the OG game graphic?" But a brilliant game indeed, gonna buy.

 

[adamsapple]

The brothers look like Kingdom Hearts characters now.

 

[Doom85]

I guess we're remaking indies now.

Breaking news: Hollow Knight: Silksong has been delayed; Hollow Knight Remake to be released in February 2024!

Sort of curious history of the developer Avantgarden...

Avantgarden - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

I'm willing to bet that Josef Fares has nothing to do with this.

"505 Games says original Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons director, Josef Fares... has endorsed the remake. "

...For whatever that means.

Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons Unreal Engine 5 Remake Revealed

Publisher 505 Games says the director of the original, Josef Fares, has endorsed the remake.

Will this one be co-op this time?

 

[violence]

Starbreeze is still around even though I think of them as a killed off studio.

 

[Humdinger]

Will be happy to buy an upgraded edition.

 

[RPS37]

If you've never played this game, please check this out.
It's a work of art. Will def replay.

 

[Jesb]

This gonna start a trend for indie remakes?

 

[Oddvintagechap]

Will this one be co-op this time?

Ill play if they add this.

 

[SenkiDala]

Will this one be co-op this time?

If you have played the original you know that it would make no sense to make it coop.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Pass. This isn't the game you'd want to replay if you already know the main twist and the ending. Not to mention the original still plays well and doesn't feel outdated.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Played the original recently and it holds up very well with nice visuals, music and gameplay. Kinda pointless remake for me personally, but a great way to introduce it to a new generation. It's a game worth playing.

 

[Rhazkul]

This is cool for people who have never played it but I personally will never play this game ever again. It broke me...

 

[Larxia]

This was a really great game, very emotional. Like others here I'm not sure that a remake was needed, but if that can give this game a new life, why not... Hopefully new people will discover it.
The soundtrack was fantastic.

 

[ShadowNate]

Eh. It was a good game for the most part, and then at the end the story took a turn and made me hate every single character in it. So that was not fun.

I tend to avoid games that take this kind of super depressing unavoidable turn at the end. I think I've had my fill forever.

 

[adamsapple]

Will this one be co-op this time?

No, that would be kinda breaking the point of the game.

 

[username12]

Good game. Doesn't need a remake. Maybe for new platforms/players, but I wouldn't buy it again.

 

[Mossybrew]

Great, unique game, nice if you never played it, but it's one of those games I wouldn't want to play through twice. Knowing how everything turns out, a second playthrough would lose a lot of that emotional impact.

 

[PlayedStation]

If you have played the original you know that it would make no sense to make it coop.

Thanks for the unnecessarily passive-aggressive comment. I played and beat the original, don't remember all that since it was years ago. Oh well.

 

[SenkiDala]

What passive agressive ? I just tell you that the game is especially designed to be played by 1 player, it was just informative.

 

[Fbh]

I really liked the original but a remake seems unnecessary. It still looks ok and plays well.

Based on the trademark at the end it seems like Hazelight didn't make this, so I guess as long as they aren't wasting their time on unnecessary remakes this doesn't really hurt anyone.

I apologize for taking your comment offensively. I appreciate the information.

 

[CGNoire]

Loved this Game....Interested.

 

[Deerock71]

Damn, so they're really remaking this.

"You, know, we really are the last game being remade."

 

[SenkiDala]

I apologize for taking your comment offensively. I appreciate the information.

No problem my friend, anyway that game is awesome and even though a remake wasn't so needed, if it can push it to a new audience this is great. I'll happily replay it.

 

[Humdinger]

Loved the first game, looking forward to the remake.

 

[Cryio]

Brothers: late-gen UE3 game, didn't look like a late gen UE3 game
Brothers remake 10+ years later: it's UE5, doesn't really look like a late gen UE4 game.

[Magic Carpet]

Is there a VR mode?

 

[crackajack]

I guess we're remaking indies now.

next the pick me artists will be coming out on youtube with "I recreated Limbo in Unreal 5." or "vvvvvv with spectacular Unreal 5 visuals."

I could totally see when mostly AI powered remasters would be done for pretty much anything, mostly just redoing the textures, but a whole studio of actual people working on this is just a waste. It might not look super great today, but still good enough for anyone that actually want's to play it. Right now included in Plus Extra.

 

[skit_data]

Sweet, I remember it being way better than I anticipated
