Jakejames Lugo of The Koalition writes: When I first bought my Nintendo 64 and a handful of games to play, one of the games included with it was Forsaken 64. It was a futuristic 3D first-person shooter with a dark and edgy tone that I thought was unique at the time. Little did I know back then it was a port of a game for PC, and a watered down version at that for Nintendo’s 64-bit console. Years later, Nightdive Studios resurrects the original PC game for the Xbox One in the form of Forsaken Remastered. However, instead of a straight port, Nightdive Studios has put together a definitive edition that combines everything from all versions of the game into one package. And while not every hiccup is completely fixed, this is the most complete version of Forsaken you can play.

Many of my friends had instead opted for the more expensive Nintendo 64 and were having all sorts of fun with it. I realised I had been missing out. During the holidays that year I arranged with a friend to swap my PlayStation for his N64 during the summer break. One of the games that I jumped on to first was Forsaken and I instantly loved it. Now in 2018 - some 20 years later - Nightdive Studios have released a remastered version of Forsaken. So have they done justice to the original or is it a game best viewed through rose tinted spectacles?"
"Very few game developers primarily focus on bringing back classic games. Over the past few years, Nightdive Studios has successfully introduced modern gamers to dozens of retro gems and I recently had the opportunity to ask their team a few questions." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Forsaken Remastered is an updated re-release of the cult classic Descent clone from 1998, complete with tweaks, bug fixes, and new content.
