A PS1 game from 1997 will return this year, and when it does, it will be upgraded for the PS5 Pro. Back in 1997, on the PS1, PlayStation gamers were probably busy with the likes of Final Fantasy 7, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Crash Bandicoot 2, Gran Turismo, Grand Theft Auto, Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, Mega Man Legends, Tomb Raider 2, and a host of other notable games in what was a stacked year for gaming.

In 1997, on the PS1, the big 3D platformer was obviously Crash Bandicoot 2, but it wasn’t the only 3D platformer. There was also a cult classic, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos. And unlike Crash Bandicoot 2, it returns this year with a remaster that you can read more about here.

The remaster of Croc: Legend of the Gobbos is coming to Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X sometime this year. When exactly we don’t know, but when it does, it will come with “enhancements” for the PS5 Pro, which itself will be released on November 7. What these improvements will be remains to be seen, but this will probably be the definitive place to play the PS1 classic not just on PlayStation, but any platform.

If this is the first time you are hearing about it Croc: Legend of the Gobbosit came out in 1997, as a PS1 exclusive, via Argonaut Software, which liquidated in 2004, but has been revived in 2024 to deliver this remaster. At the time of its original release, Croc: Legend of the Gobbos failed to live up to the 3D platformer classics of this era, but it made up for it significantly, as evidenced by its 79 on Metacritic.

“Croc: Legend of the Gobbos follows the heartwarming journey of an adorable, humble little crocodile equipped with nothing more than his iconic backpack and a wiggling butt as he embarks on his quest to rescue the gobbos from the clutches of the nefarious Baron Dante and his hordes of Dantinis,” reads an official blurb on the remaster, courtesy of developer Argonauts, for those unfamiliar with it. captivity.”
