Nightdive say that Rise Of The Triad’s art has been remastered and the cutscenes are now in HD. They’re chucking in a new level editor, stuff from “lost betas”, and an extra episode called Dial M For Monk. No, I don’t think Tony Shalhoub’s involved. Everything should be running in up to 4K at 60fps, with increased field of view and updates for the HUD and UI. It’s got mod cons such as achievements and cloud saves too.

I was just a young lad back when the original was out. I don’t think my parents would’ve let me play Rise Of The Triad, although I do have some fond memories of gibbing Nazis in the Wolfenstein 3D demo. I might pick this up just to see what I missed out on, if anything. Hopefully, Nightdive will have done a much better job thanthey did for Blade Runner– althoughEd thoughtthe remake of System Shock seemed to be shaping up.

Rise Of The Triad: Ludicrous Editionreleases sometime in early 2023 on Steam andGOGfor PC. It’s also coming to PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch.
