The developers behind this year’s System Shock remake and the recent Quake II remaster among countless other classic titles now available on modern devices – Nightdive Studios – is now taking a dip into the Galaxy Far Far Away with a remastered of 1995’s First Person Shooter, Star Wars: Dark Forces.
Originally developed LucasArts, Dark Forces placed you in the role of Kyle Katarn, a mercenary hired by the Rebel Alliance to discover and destroy the Galactic Empire’s Dark Trooper project, a clandestine military operation created to develop Force-sensitive StormTroopers and Battle Droids.
The upcoming remaster will be using the studio’s proprietary KEX engine, support up to 4K resolution at 120FPS, feature modern gamepad support, remastered cutscenes, and add trophies and achievements.
Star Wars: Dark Forces Remastered will be available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X later this year.
