Trailer

Trailer just shown on Youtube Live @ E3

Game was semi cancelled when the project was removed from the developer who ended up shutting down last February: http://kotaku.com/studio-behind-phantom-dust-reboot-shuts-down-1686398613

Edit: Release date TBC 2017

Edit 2: Appears to be an HD port of the original Xbox game with updated Xbox Live features.

New Features for Xbox One and Windows 10 PC:
• Xbox Live Arena support integrated
• Play on Windows 10 PC or Xbox One seamlessly with cross-saves, retaining all of your progress and in-game items between both platforms.
• Cross-device play lets you play against friends regardless of platform.
• Full Xbox Live feature set of the original game, including downloading top player’s arsenals to practice against them – a feature not available since the original’s release!
• Looking for Group on Xbox Live so you can find and connect with other gamers more easily than ever.
• Multiplayer starter arsenals are included. Jump right into multiplayer with a better selection of skills!
• The Multiplayer skill shop is no longer tied to solo player progression. All skills are available for purchase immediately for multiplayer use.
• Improvements to game balance and frame rate

It's not a remake but I'll take it. Folk talk so much about the multiplayer that I'm excited to try the "whole" experience rather than the single-player only original game now that Live is gone.

Surprised that wasn't at the Microsoft conference.

EDIT: So in the matter of a minute, went from thinking they brought back the new project, then they are remaking the original game, and now its just a port.

I'll take a re-release over no release. Hopefully if it sells good, they can take the feedback and apply it to a proper sequel.
