"Reject This Ugly Husk And Play The Original" - Panzer Dragoon II Zwei Remake Isn't Going Down Well With Fans 1

Yesterday, it was confirmed that Forever Entertainment's long-delayed Panzer Dragoon II Zwei remake will be playable at this year's TGS.

Originally announced all the way back in 2018, the game soon vanished from release schedules – so much so that we even asked what had happened to it back in January of this year. It has now been confirmed that it will be developed by MegaPixel Studios and Storm Trident, with Forever handling the publishing duties.

You'd imagine that, after such a long period of silence for a remake of a beloved Sega Saturn classic, the reaction to this announcement would be positive – but you'd be wrong. Damn wrong.

The selection of screenshots shared by Forever Entertainment doesn't seem to have filled fans with optimism for the forthcoming game, with many people on social media posting overwhelmingly negative replies.

Clearly, Forever's approach to these titles isn't quite syncing up with the expectations of fans; some have even likened the look of the game to a mobile phone title, or even old Voodoo 3dfx graphics.

However, some of this will be down to the standard of Forever Entertainment's previous Sega remasters.

The remake of the original Panzer Dragoon currently has a rating of 63 on Metacritic, while House of the Dead's remake has a score of 57. More recently, the second HotD remake was awarded 5/10 by our friends over at Nintendo Life.
