After a bit of beating about the bush, Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition will be released on PS5 and PS4 next week, Tuesday, 25th June, Ubisoft confirmed. In addition, this enhanced remaster will boast enhanced visuals, quality-of-life improvements, and entirely new content.
Limited Run Games is offering physical copies for those interested (pre-orders open on 12th July). Those who do dive in can look forward to reliving Jade, Pey'j, and co's adventures at 4K/60fps, cross-saving across all platforms, the addition of autosave, and the ability to skip cutscenes.
More than 15 pieces from the soundtrack have been re-recorded by a live orchestra, and a Speedrun Mode has been added for those who just have to go fast. A treasure hunt which purports to build a bridge between protagonist Jade and the game's almost mythical sequel, Beyond Good & Evil 2, also sounds like an intriguing addition.
