Fans of survival horror, get ready to revisit the frozen horrors of The Thing! In celebration of the 22nd anniversary of the North American release of the cult-classic horror game, Nightdive Studios has revealed an exciting new look at The Thing: Remastered. Slated for release later this year, this remaster promises to bring back the alien terror to PC and console gamers, enhanced like never before.
Originally released in 2002 and inspired by the 1982 film *The Thing* from Universal Pictures, this third-person survival horror shooter gets a modern facelift. Nightdive Studios, renowned for their restorative work on classic games, have employed their proprietary KEX Engine to transform *The Thing* into a brilliant modern-day experience. Expect to play in stunning 4K resolution at 120FPS, with massively improved character models, textures, and animations.
The team has also implemented advanced 3D rendering that greatly enhances lighting and atmospheric effects. The result is a suspenseful, disgustingly detailed remaster that’s bound to thrill both new gamers and long-time fans of the original.
We know you folks have been champing at the bit for more gruesome sights, so check out the new 4K The Thing: Remastered screenshots below!
In The Thing: Remastered, players take on the role of Captain J.F. Blake, the leader of a United States Army Special Forces team sent to investigate a mysterious outbreak at the U.S. Outpost #31 research facility. This setting is a direct continuation of the chilling events of the original The Thing film, placing you right in the middle of an alien-induced nightmare.
Trapped in the arctic tundra with a shape-shifting alien lurking about, Blake must navigate the treacherous environment while maintaining the trust and sanity of his squad. The psychological tension is palpable, as fear and paranoia permeate throughout the game.
For those who are curious about the development process of The Thing: Remastered, Nightdive Studios invites you to explore their Deep Dive podcast. This series features interviews with multiple developers of the remaster, as well as original members of the Computer Artworks team, including director and programmer Mark Atkinson and art director Ron Ashtiani.
The Thing: Remastered will be available digitally later this year across multiple platforms, including Windows PC via Steam and GOG, PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One and Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Fans can wishlist the game now to stay updated on its release.
Prepare yourself for the ultimate alien terror ride. Whether you’re reliving the classic or experiencing it for the first time, The Thing: Remastered is set to be an unforgettable horror experience. Stay frosty and trust no one!
