Posted on February 15, 2022 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch
It’s been a few years since Grim Fandango Remastered first appeared on Switch, but a physical version is finally happening. iam8bit is teaming up with Double Fine on the release.
The physical version of Grim Fandango Remastered includes a premium reversible cover by Holly Rothrock, exclusive o-sleeve cover by Peter Chan, golden train ticket, and matchbook notebook from the Calavera Cafe.
Grim Fandango Remastered originally landed on Switch as a digital download in 2018. Read more about the game below.
Something’s rotten in the land of the dead, and you’re being played for a sucker. Meet Manny Calavera, travel agent at the Department of Death. He sells luxury packages to souls on their four-year journey to eternal rest. But there’s trouble in paradise. Help Manny untangle himself from a conspiracy that threatens his very salvation.
Grim Fandango’s epic story of four years in the life (or death) of Manny Calavera, travel agent to the dead, has been remastered to look, sound, and control even better than when it won GameSpot’s Game of the Year award upon its original launch.
Remastered version includes:
• Repainted, hi-res character textures
• New, dynamic lighting
• Classic score re-recorded with a full live orchestra
• Over 2 hours of exclusive developer commentary
• Concept art browser
You can pre-order the physical version of Grim Fandango Remastered on Switch from iam8bit here. Copies should ship in early March.
