It was back in June that The Thing: Remastered was first announced for Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, and although we hadn't heard much since, Nightdive Studios has treated us to a brand-new trailer this week!

You can check out that trailer up above, which includes snippets of cutscenes and raw gameplay. Nightdive is the studio behind many incredible remasters (Quake 2, Dark Forces, etc.), and apparently The Thing: Remastered features some of the company's "most impressive visual upgrades to date". Here's a bit more about what to expect:

"In addition to improved models, textures, and environments, new dynamic lighting, and 4K resolution at 144 FPS, we’ve worked with the original development team on an assortment of gameplay improvements."

There's still no date for The Thing: Remastered yet, but it's been reiterated this week that it's scheduled for a release "later this year". We've only got two months left, so we're assuming we'll be playing it very soon indeed!

Did you ever get a chance to play the original 2002 version on the original Xbox, and if so, what did you think of it? Will you be getting the remaster when it arrives? We'd love to hear from you down in the comments section below.
