What started off as a request from the ResetEra forum has now become a reality: PlayStation 3 indie classic Shatter is being remastered as Shatter Remastered Deluxe for PS5 and PS4 later this year. This new version will feature new VFX, a 4K resolution, 120 frames-per-second support, and a remixed soundtrack for $9.99.
"Progress through stages, unlocking powerful upgrades and earning the right to challenge massive bosses. Compete in local multiplayer modes, take on online leaderboards, and become a brick-breaking champion," a press release reads. A few different screenshots can be viewed below to accompany the announcement trailer up top.
PikPok CEO Mario Wynands explained how blown away the team was with the success of the original game, both critically and commercially. "As a recognized 'modern retro' classic, we are excited to now bring Shatter Remastered Deluxe to a contemporary audience taking advantage of all the capabilities of the consoles of today, including stunning 4k resolution, enhanced FX, and a 5.1 surround sound remastered soundtrack."
Do you have fond memories of the PS3 original? Way back at release in 2009, we gave Shatter a 9/10. Just one week after publication, the game became the second most downloaded title on PSN ever. Of course, those records have long been beaten several times over, but it's a nice trip down journey lane for something many fondly remember.

I think you can get this now on netflix (yes really) but it's only on mobile and you don't get the deluxe features
Colin Moriarty will be marking out.
Wow this is incredible news. Totally unexpected!
Hopefully this leads to a vinyl OST repress.
This will be a first day for the new Plus subscription then right?
Sweet. Been playing Shattered Remastered on iOS (free from Netflix as mentioned in a other comment) and itโs awesome. But will be better on console for sure.
I still play this on my ps3 regularly. The soundtrack is fantastic. Definitively will scoop this up
I still listen to the soundtrack for this today! I can't wait!
Have this on PS3 but donโt think of rebuying it. Also own Geometry Wars, Super stardust games + Resogun. Games to play between other games, like in short sessions. Not a fan of the Recharged collection, though.
Great little game, have it on my PS3 along with many other indie games. Worth a purchase if you haven't ever played it.

I wonder what those buffoons are up to nowadays. Was a huge fan, but I couldn't stand any of them suddenly (well after that huge breakup)
Damn! Cannot wait to replay this ๐๐ค listen to the soundtrack all the time still!
Instabuy! But why remix the music? It was perfect already!
@BoldAndBrash the Sacred Symbols podcast is pretty good...
I've been playing it on my phone via Netflix for a couple of months now.
This is a game I never thought we'd see again. A great early PS3 era gem!
@BoldAndBrash Colin on his channel is pretty good but the Kinda Funny lot I found to be unbearable.
I remember when this came out. Bought it, listened only to the soundtrack, and never actually played it ๐
@AdamNovice
Yeah I checked KF out again and couldn't stand it. Damn shame cause of how awesome Beyond and PS I love you was. Might check out Colin now thanks
Oh nice. That was a really cool game in the early days of digital downloads.
Someone please remake frequency next with the original songs!
