In 1996, Virgin Interactive Entertainment revealed Freak Boy for the N64. The game would have featured “three-dimensional graphics, addicting play mechanics and cutting-edge technology that uses morphing special effects,” according to the original announcement.
Freak Boy never actually made it to market. It did appear at E3 1996, but the game ended up seeing cancellation soon after. Virgin Interactive Entertainment intended to have Freak Boy ready for early 1997.
Freak Boy is back in the news roughly two decades later, as an Unseen64 reader found and purchased an early prototype of the project from a flea market. You can find several clips below.
