Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP, the remastered version of Grasshopper’s kitsch character action, will launch first on PS5, from 12th September. However, if you’re yet to upgrade to Sony’s new-gen system, you won’t have to wait long for a PS4 version: it’s due out in November digitally. There’ll be no physical edition of the last-gen edition to the best of our knowledge.
While this is being billed as a remake by Dragami Games, it sounds more like a remaster to us. The press release teases upgraded “full HD” visuals and “shorter loading times”, but promises the original experience remains unchanged and intact. There’s also a new “RePOP” mode which adjusts the colours to make them more garish and comic book-inspired.
