Rare Replay celebrates the historic studio’s past — and future

While the Electronic Entertainment Expo tradeshow is about showing off new games and technologies, Rare chose to mostly focus on the past by celebrating its 30th anniversary with Rare Replay.

Coming out on Aug. 4 for $30, Rare Replay collects 30 games that span the studio’s three-decade history — going as far back as 1983 with Jetpac, and as recent as 2008 with Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. You can play each title in their original, untouched state, or quickly jump into a set of custom challenges that remix certain parts of the game in Snapshot mode.
