After 22 years, the cult classic shooter based on the greatest horror movie of all time gets the second chance it's always deserved in The Thing: Remastered

The Thing: Remastered.

Back in 2002, John Carpenter's classic The Thing - one of the best horror movies ever made, and arguably the best - got a sequel in video game form. Now, that PS2-era cult classic is getting the second chance it's always deserved thanks to the remaster masters at Nightdive Studios.

Announced today as part of IGN Live, The Thing: Remastered is out later this year, upgrading the original for modern platforms. On PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X, the game will boast support for 4K 120 FPS action, and it looks like all platforms - including PS4, Xbox One, and Switch - will enjoy the benefits of improved lighting, models, textures, and animations.
