- They have the original source assets from the LucasArts archives.
- New renderer, 1080p, per pixel lighting.
- Peter McConnell will be working with the same orchestra from the Broken Age soundtrack to rerecord certain tracks.
- Peter Chan, the original GF concept artist, is on board.
- The iPad version will have a point and click interface, presumably the others will have that option too. Tim wants to keep the keep the tank controls in there too though for the sake of being faithful to the original.
- They want to include a lot of behind the scenes stuff, so commentary tracks are likely.

Thank you to Crimson for this summary.

As if the PS4 hasn't sold me enough with the Last of Us and No Man's Sky. strawberry floating hell, sounds like a hell of a win for Sony this year.

Out of all the great announcements during the Sony conference, this was the one that actually did make my jaw drop.

Wow a new Grim Fandango? Holy gooseberry fool.

It's a remaster of the original.

Even better :nod:

I woke my wife up at 4am to tell her about this news.....she was actually okay with being woken up to this news.

She took pity on you, that's why.

Looking forward to this. I criminally never finished the game.

Nope, she loves the original and now has said "we need another Vita" :datass:

Yeah I would've been very surprised if this hadn't been on PC too at the very least!

Getting this on PC day 1.

Other platform(s), plural.

Really sounds like its not exclusive to PlayStation at all.

I'd imagine he's talking about mobile platforms.

Never played the original so greatly looking forward to this.

He said in a tweet when someone asked him that it's exclusive to PS4/vita on consoles.

It'll get a PC release fo sho.

Aw hell yeah!
Was thinking of replaying the original lately so this is perfect.

Hope the PS4 and Vita versions are cross buy.

And probably a release on Android and iOS.

I'd like to have it on a mobile platform, but if its coming to iOS I'd rather have it on my iPad than Vita.
