Grim Fandango Remastered Out Now For Nintendo Switch

Lucasfilm’s classic video game, Grim Fandago Remastered has had a surprise release onto the Nintendo Switch, which ties in with the 20th Anniversary of the game.  It’s priced at $14.99 and available on the Nintendo eShop.

Here are the details:

Something’s rotten in the land of the dead, and you’re being played for a sucker. Meet Manny Calavera, travel agent at the Department of Death. He sells luxury packages to souls on their four-year journey to eternal rest. But there’s trouble in paradise. Help Manny untangle himself from a conspiracy that threatens his very salvation.

Grim Fandango’s epic story of four years in the life (or death) of Manny Calavera, travel agent to the dead, has been remastered to look, sound, and control even better than when it won GameSpot’s Game of the Year award upon its original launch.

Remastered version includes:

• Repainted, hi-res character textures

• New, dynamic lighting

• Classic score re-recorded with a full live orchestra

• Over 2 hours of exclusive developer commentary

• Concept art browser
