[JareBear: Remastered]

Ori was in my top 5 games the year it came out. Can’t wait for this. Excellent work

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

So hyped. 2020, though.

 

[Mista]

Updated OP

 

[Shakka43]

Jesus! That's so far away from what I expected.

 

[PhilipDoesMatter]

I was betting for an October release for sure.

 

[Orta]

The fact that this is its third consecutive e3 appearance worries me. Why the delays? Or may it have simply been a case of showing it far too early into its development

The original was my game of the year by a considerable distance back in 2015 so I'd be absolutely gutted if this isn't at least on par with it. If I hadn't got a PC I'd have bought an XBO for part 1 and likely an XB OneX for this one.

 

[LittleBusters]

Jesus! That's so far away from what I expected.

What do you mean, the date?

 

[RiccochetJ]

Game looks absolutely gorgeous. Wish it came out this fall, but I can be patient.

 

[mejin]

best of the show

 

[LittleBusters]

The thing is Sony has games all the time that get delayed and nobody bats and eyelid. Better to spend the extra time and make sure it's polished and bug free, no?

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

Release an actual physical copy at launch this time Microsoft

 

[Shakka43]

What do you mean, the date?

Yes, i was hoping for much earlier release, like October or something. The game looks awesome though and it will probably end up being larger than The Blind Forest.

 

[Solarstrike]

Looks incredible, plays probably even better.

 

[Deputy Moonman]

I was hoping it would be a 2019 release. Bummed that i have to wait until next year. Still, game looks awesome.
