Console Obsession says: "Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars was originally released in 1996, with the original game receiving praise for numerous aspects, such as its voice acting, storytelling, and music. In 2024, a remastered version has been released. But through a modern lens, and as someone who never played the original, does the game still live up to the hype?"
"Despite the exoticism, 1996 PC voice sample quality, and linear, dialogue-heavy interactions, this reforging of an old point-and-click classic does a great job. It looks fabulous, and everything that gave the original its appeal is intact. It hardly needs proving these days, but Shadow of the Templars: Reforged shows once again that nostalgia never gets old." - Roland Ingram | NintendoLife
"The New York-based (the US) indie games developer Revolution Software are today very excited and proud to announce that “Broken Sword – Shadow of the Templars: Reforged”, is coming to the Nintendo Switch on November 7th, 2024." - Jonas Ek. TGG.
