Microids has released the first screenshots for its upcoming remake of XIII. These screenshots will give you an idea of the visual enhancements that The Playmagic Team has made to the game.
While The Playmagic Team aims to modernize the graphics, sound and animations, it will remain faithful to the original game. The team will also rework XIII’s gameplay mechanics in an effort to modernize the experience.
In the XIII Remake, you play as the famous Thirteen, accused of assassinating the President of the United States. Our protagonist will wake up, suffering from amnesia on Brighton beach, and the only clues to his past will be a small key and a mysterious tattoo of the Roman numerals XIII on his collarbone. As such, it’ll be up to you to find the answers during this 34-level solo game.
XIII Remake will release in 2020. The game was originally targeting a November 13th release, however the team needed more time in order to further polish it.
Enjoy!

DAFUQ IS THS SHT?
This is a filter on a unreal engine 3 game. Doesnt look cartoonish at all. At the very least make a sequel after this, dont just remake it, the story ends with a cliffhanger.
But on the bright side combat wont be so sht.
So much time has gone by between the old game, and this new one. I’m so disappointed with how this looks.
This damn game should look like that Dragon Ball Z fighting game that came out not to long ago in terms of what it graphically looks like.
Instead its heading straight into a half generation ago territory. What is happening?
transformers devastation is another good example
Thought the same thing, the original art style isn’t respected at all, it seems like it’s just a filter applied on a generic game, and that honeycomb/sharpness filter on the hands and gun model is really annoying…
Anyway, the original can run with widescreen + better fov with some tweaks and looks better than this, i’d love to see ADS on this game, but if it’s going to like sh*t, i’ll pass
ads? lol no when you headshot an enemy it shows comic panels at the top.
I know, ADS wouldn’t prevent these panels, i think XIII’s gameplay can benefit from ADS since it’s not a fast paced old school shooter and it has a realistic setting
prevent no, but when you are zoomed in its harder to notice the panels on top of the screen.
HAHA how you can miss comic tiles stretching over 25% of the screen cmon, hell even the base game has weapon with scopes (Sniper and Crossbow) and that doesn’t bother at all
Remake or Remaster?
they said remake.
Looks good. Looks like the original but cleaner textures. Still has the cartoon comic look.
Please don’t suck.
