Another World is a classic and beloved platformer by Eric Chahi, a developer who recently put out From Dust, another game that I love on more modern platforms.
Thankfully, Another World has been confirmed for a release on the Playstation 4 next week, on June 25th. The process to put the game on the next-generation platform was a bit complicated, as the original game was a much lower resolution.
To compensate for this, Chahi and Martial Hesse-Dreville, a freelance game developer rendered the game at 2560 by 1600 pixels on the PS4, providing a look robust with clean, modern aesthetic.
Another World launching on the PS4 is a bit of a historic occurrence, as the original launched 23 years ago on a variety of PCs – way back in 1991. A 20th anniversary edition arrived on Steam last spring.
