Another game from the last generation is getting remastered for the current consoles, but it’s not one you would expect.
Activision announced today that Deadpool is getting a PlayStation 4 and Xbox One remastered version that will come with all of the action game’s DLC. It comes out on Nov. 17 for $50.
The original release of Deadpool was in 2013 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. On a personal note, I gave the game one of its higher reviews, which I still stand by. While the combo/counter-based combat is familiar to anyone who’s played a superhero game since Batman: Arkham Asylum, Deadpool nails the comic book’s humor and self-referential tone.
So, if you skipped Deadpool the first time around and are a fan of the character, you’ll soon have a chance at redemption. This remaster is also coming out ahead of the Deadpool movie, which hits theaters on February 12. Re-releasing this game in November can help keep the character fresh in people’s minds until then.
Remasters are a popular way for publishers to release a new title for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One without having to spend a lot of money. So far, last-gen hits like Grand Theft Auto V, The Last of Us, Tomb Raider, Dishonored, and many more have seen the move from PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
