The game is looking to give a modern retelling of the original title, as they branch off of the events at the end of that first game with an amazing modern action platform shooter. Along with the reveal of the game, the team announced they would be releasing special editions of it, as you'll be able to get physical copies of the game in the Limited Edition and the Collector's Edition, both of which will be sold for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation consoles. We got more info and the trailers for you below as the game is kind of earmarked for release this November.
