The remaster of the platformer has a release date, and it won’t be an April Fool’s joke from Argonaut Games.

Croc is back and he’s still got the moves! Croc: Legend of the Gobbos is the heartwarming journey of an adorable, humble little crocodile, equipped only with his iconic backpack and a wiggly butt, as he runs, jumps, climbs, swims and tail-waggles his way through a series of unique worlds on a quest to save his adopted family of Gobbos from the clutches of the evil wizard Baron Dante and his mischievous Dantini hordes. With its broad appeal and groundbreaking creativity, the original game quickly became a multi-million selling platform classic, and while The Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Remaster delivers an authentic gameplay experience that takes players back to the golden age of gaming, it also introduces a host of modern updates including enhanced high-definition graphics, modern control mechanics with an updated camera, and retro video modes to recreate the gaming experience that captivated us in the 1990s.

Immerse yourself in a beautifully recreated world filled with vibrant colors, captivating landscapes, and playful challenges that will ignite your imagination. The Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Remaster offers an authentic blend of nostalgia and modern gameplay, ensuring a gaming experience that pays homage to the original while inviting a new generation to discover its timeless magic. The game features 45 levels packed with enemies and bosses, spread across five different worlds including volcanoes, ice glaciers, underwater caves and more.

Working with many of the original team members, Argonaut Games spent over a year tracking down a treasure trove of long-lost development materials to create a carefully curated digital museum featuring concept character and level designs, animation tests, game design documents, rare promotional items, pre-release mixes of the iconic Croc: Legend of the Gobbos soundtrack, and a series of documentary interviews with many of the contributors to Croc: Legend of the Gobbos: Legend of the Gobbos soundtrack, and also created a series of documentary interviews with many of the contributors to Croc: Legend of the Gobbos development team. The Crocipedia is the perfect way for superfans and game historians alike to take a deep dive into the creative process behind the game and uncover the stories that helped shape Croc’s journey to becoming a gaming legend.

“We are thrilled to release Croc: Legend of the Gobbos to a new generation of players. Our team has worked tirelessly to preserve the charm and nostalgia of the original game, while introducing modern enhancements that make it even more enjoyable on today’s consoles and PCs. We can’t wait for players to dive into Croc’s world and relive the magic,” said Argonauts Games founder Jez San in the press release.
