Nightdive Studios has a clear mission: to bring back "lost and forgotten gaming treasures". This cause has seen the studio remaster oldies like Quake, System Shock, and recently, Dark Forces, the first game made on Lucas' Jedi Engine, but not the last.
"When Nightdive looks at titles, we sometimes look at popularity," Larry Kuperman, VP of business development, told me at Gamescom. "So when we were asked, 'Do you want to remaster Doom and Quake?' I didn't have to think long on that. But then we also look at influential games that changed gaming, and [Outlaws] falls into that category."
