Microids has shared a Switch-specific trailer for the remake of XIII.
The remake was first announced in September 2019. It had an initial launch – and a very rough one at that – the following year, but not on Switch. Due to negative feedback, Microids went back to the drawing board and implemented fixes plus adjustments while adding online multiplayer. Tower Five, a studio brought in for the updated version, also redid the art direction, AI, and more. Switch will now be getting this updated version.
Here’s everything you need to know about XIII:
On that same day, the online multiplayer mode will be added, and the game will receive a free major update (already included in the Switch version) for the PS4, Xbox One and PC versions that will improve the overall quality of the game to meet players’ expectations.
