Stardock Entertainment has announced that they are working on Elemental: Reforged, a remaster of the original Elemental that's more than your average remaster. This particular title will not only present the best possible version of the original game, but it will also integrate some of the biggest sections from all of the games in the franchise, essentially making it the most robust version you could ever want. No release date was provided at the time of this announcement, so we're guessing either they have a date and are holding onto it, or they're still working on it and we won't see the game until probably 2026.
