Croc Legend of the Gobbos Remaster Now Available
“Twenty-seven years ago, that little green crocodile thwarted my plan to usurp King Rufus and imprison the Gobbos. Thanks to Argonaut Games, I have been given a do-over, and this time, I shall prevail!” - Baron Dante
London, UK – Get ready to relive the magic of the classic platformer on today’s consoles and PCs! The highly anticipated remaster of Croc Legend of the Gobbos is now available across all modern consoles on their digital storefronts, and exclusively on GOG for PC gamers.
Jez San OBE, who originally founded Argonaut in 1982, expressed his enthusiasm about the revival: “Bringing the Argonaut name back after twenty years away has been an amazing experience. Argonaut was always about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in gaming. I’m excited to see how the relaunched Argonaut Games builds on that legacy, starting with the Croc Legend of the Gobbos remaster.”
A Classic Returns
Originally released in 1997 for the original Sony PlayStation, Sega Saturn, and PCs, Croc Legend of the Gobbos captured the hearts of players worldwide with its charming protagonist and imaginative worlds. Now, nearly three decades later, this beloved title from Argonaut Games is making a triumphant return with stunning new visuals, updated quality-of-life features, and an array of exciting additions that are sure to delight both longtime fans and new players alike.
Enhanced for Modern Platforms
The remastered Croc Legend of the Gobbos brings the heartwarming journey of Croc, the humble and courageous little crocodile, back to life with vibrant, high-definition graphics, a modern controls and camera system, and refined gameplay mechanics. Players will once again embark on a delightful quest across a series of imaginative worlds, running, jumping, climbing, swimming, and tail-spinning to rescue the adorable Gobbos from the nefarious Baron Dante’s grasp. Navigate Croc through beautifully recrafted levels brimming with quirky enemies, puzzles, and hidden secrets to save his adoptive Gobbo family from captivity.
Available Everywhere
Croc Legend of the Gobbos is available on all modern consoles, including Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S, to ensure everyone can join the fun. For PC gamers, the game is exclusively available on GOG, and it comes with a bonus gift of Croc Classic, the unremastered original PC version of the game updated to run on Windows 10/11, for game preservationists. This multi-platform release strategy guarantees that players can experience the adventure no matter their preferred gaming system.
“After all these years, the Gobbos still think they can outsmart me? This time, with the power of modern gaming, I will finally conquer Gobbo Valley and claim my rightful throne,” said Baron Dante, the diabolical sorcerer and marauder, via a spokesman. “Prepare yourselves, for Baron Dante's reign is inevitable!”
Special Features & Enhancements
Retro-gaming fans will be excited to learn that the remaster includes the Crocipedia, an extensive and meticulously curated digital museum. This treasure trove of long-lost assets includes design documents, concept art, animation tests, pre-release music tracks, and exclusive interviews with key members of the talented team that created both the original game and the remaster.
Controls-wise, players get the best of both worlds as they can use either the classic “tank” control scheme of the original era or a totally modern, fluid analog controller implementation with an overhauled camera system, seamlessly switching between them. The combination of both control mechanisms and the enhanced camera delivers smoother, more immersive navigation for a significantly elevated “quality of life” gameplay experience.
