We’re excited to announce our next remaster project… The Thing: Remastered! That’s right, the 2002 third-person survival horror shooter sequel to John Carpen...

Very cool, I have fond memories of playing this on the original Xbox. It had some features, such as the squad management, that were pretty advanced at the time. Looking forward to check it out.

This is really surprising. I figured this game was lost to time because of licensing issues after Vivendi was absorbed into Activision.

It looks like more than just a remaster is going on here. I’ve been replaying it recently and there are some things shown in this trailer that aren’t in the original game, unless they just scripted some scenes to look cool for the trailer that aren’t actually going to be in the game.

I just hope they rebalance the boss fights. Some of them are ridiculously difficult in the original, to the point where they almost ruin the game.

I found this game broken back In the day. I would test my team and they would be human, then within a minute (not leaving my sight), one would turn into the thing.

I’ve played maybe an hour or 2 on my PS2 maybe a year or two ago and the mechanics sounded so amazing, but in execution they don’t seem to work as intended like you said.

When I was a little kid, like could barely play video games, this game scared me so bad I couldn’t even continue. I’d just stay put and have fun killing g my team before they killed me.
