Whoa, WHAT????!?!?!?!?!?

This has been on my list of PSX games to try out for a while now, what an unexpected game to remake.

 

[Moses85]

Looks incredible

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Oh damn look what Microids is up to!

God I miss Benoit...what a treat to see this happen.

 

[Elios83]

Fantastic surprise, this game came out before the first Syberia and it was fantastic although with a few limitations. A full 3D remake is great news.

 

[solidus12]

Never played Amerzone. However, I have bought and played all the Syberia games.

I will buy it because I love Sokal’s games (rip)

Forgot to say that the game will also receive a physical release at retail for both PS5 and XSX.

 

[Skifi28]

I've always wanted to play the original, but it always felt a bit too oldschool for me, at least technically. This is a great chance.

 

[Toots]

Sokal story is as usual deeply nostalgic and touching.
To discover it with such beautiful presentation is a a treat everyone must give themselves.

 

[Branded]

So is this similar to Cyan Worlds' games?

I really wanted to play Amerzone after playing Syberia.

And they after some years I finally played it.

And it was meh...
Definitely not on the level of Syberia.
I was totally disappointed.
But that's like my opinion, man.
