Croc: Legend of the Gobbos remaster announced for consoles, PC alongside Argonaut Games revival - Gematsu

Argonaut Games, a British game developer founded in 1982 by Jez San and closed down in October 2004, has announced its revival alongside a remastered version of Croc: Legend of the Gobbos due out for “all the current consoles” and PC in 2024.

Known for titles like Starglider, Starglider 2, Star Fox, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, and Croc 2, Argonaut Games released its last game in 2004, and is now making a comeback as a boutique publisher with a planned slate of classic Argonauts Games intellectual property and “exciting new titles” for both current and retro game platforms.

Its first title is the remastered version of Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, which first launched for the original PlayStation in September 1997. Here is an overview of the remastered release, via Argonaut Games:

Croc: Legend of the Gobbos, Argonaut’s 1997 multi-million-selling hit, features Croc, a lovable crocodile who embarks on a quest to rescue the Gobbos from the clutches of the evil Baron Dante. The game’s charm and creativity made it an instant classic, and the remaster promises to bring the beloved game to a new generation of gamers with enhanced high-definition graphics, updated modern control mechanics, and a nostalgic, fun, and authentic gameplay experience that will be sure to ignite the imagination of players and remind them why they fell in love with video games in the first place. Additionally, retro-gaming fans will be excited to learn that the remaster includes the Crocipedia, an extensive and meticulously curated digital museum containing long-lost development assets such as game design documents, concept art, animation tests, team member interviews, and much more. “I worked closely with Jez on the design and production of Starglider, Argonaut’s first big hit back in 1986, so to take up the mantle of relaunching Argonaut Games nearly four decades later brings me full circle, and we have further exciting announcements in the pipeline in the coming months,” said Argonaut Games co-CEO Gary Sheinwald in a press release. Argonaut Games co-CEO Mike Arkin added, “We wanted to honor the original game’s legacy while introducing it to a new audience. The HD remaster allows us to do just that. It’s been a labor of love for our team, and we can’t wait to share it with players on all the current consoles and PC later this year.” Original Argonaut Games founder Jez San said, “I’m thrilled to see the Argonaut name back after 20 years away. Argonaut was always about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in gaming, and I’m excited to see how the relaunched Argonaut Games builds on that legacy, starting with the Croc: Legend of the Gobbos remaster.”

Bionicle: The Game playable Onua Mata mod(s) released!

Recently I released a long awaited mod for BTG that replaces Onua Nuva with Onua Mata! While advancements in model swapping techniques made this mod possible, it still took a significant amount of time to complete. It’s up on the BTG Mod DB page as a standalone addon, and some additional skins for it were made by fellow Bionicle modder, Kralich. Check it out!

About

Developed by legendary studio Argonaut Games, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos follows the heartwarming journey of an endearing, humble little crocodile equipped with only his iconic backpack and a wiggly butt as he sets off on his quest to rescue the Gobbos from the clutches of the nefarious Baron Dante and his hordes of Dantinis. Croc must platform his way across a series of unique worlds by running, jumping, climbing, swimming, and tail spinning to save the Gobbos from captivity. With its charm and creativity, the original game quickly became a multi-million unit selling platforming classic and the Croc remaster delivers an authentic gameplay experience that will transport players back to the golden age of gaming.

Updated modern analog controls with an improved camera.
