Grim Fandango Remastered To Come To The Nintendo Switch

Double Fine Productions’ adventure game, Grim Fadango Remastered, is coming to the Nintendo Switch. At their E3 panel, Double Fine Productions’ founder, Tim Schafer announced that the game is planned for the Switch but does not provide a estimated release date for it.

Something’s rotten in the land of the dead, and you’re being played for a sucker. Meet Manny Calavera, travel agent at the Department of Death. He sells luxury packages to souls on their four-year journey to eternal rest. But there’s trouble in paradise. Help Manny untangle himself from a conspiracy that threatens his very salvation.

One of the most acclaimed adventure games of all time is now back, better than ever. Grim Fandango’s epic story of four years in the life (or death) of Manny Calavera, travel agent to the dead, has been remastered to look, sound, and control even better than when it won GameSpot’s Game of the Year award upon its original launch. Grim Fandango still stands as a classic of the genre, with unforgettable characters and unique combination of film noir and Mexican folklore.

Remastered version includes

Repainted, hi-res character textures
New, dynamic lighting
Classic score re-recorded with a full live orchestra
Over 2 hours of exclusive developer commentary
