HD remaster of the first Croc title will be released for “all the current consoles and PC". There's no specific release date beyond "2024" at the moment.

Here's an article with additional info and screen shots. Main points:

  • HD graphics keeping the original art style
  • updated controls
  • digital museum containing development assets, design documents, concept art and more

I like the idea of the digital museum. Would be nice if remakes of games would include stuff like that about the original. If the remake isnt faithful to the original (faithful like the Resident Evil remake from 2002 was faithful, or something like Metroid Prime Remastered but an actual remake), then at the very least remakes should include a copy of the original game playable on the same device, either as a port or via emulation.

I'd love to see developers and publishers start to do this. Though I am interested in Tomb Raider and how they handle the graphic toggling, which seems like a half-way point to what you're describing.
