00:00We're living in the golden age of remakes. Classic titles are being rebuilt from the ground up,
00:05not just polished with a fresh coat of paint, but completely reimagined with modern visuals,
00:10smoother gameplay, and cinematic storytelling. Whether it's horror games that'll make you jump
00:15out of your chair, RPGs that'll eat up your weekends, or action adventures that defined an
00:20entire generation, these remakes are here to remind us why we fell in love with gaming in
00:26the first place. So, let's dive into the 15 upcoming remake games that are about to take
00:31over your consoles and your free time. Fatal Frame 2 Crimson Butterfly Remake is officially
00:41dropping on March 12, 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X and S, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2. This isn't just
00:50a simple remaster. Koei Tecmo and Team Ninja have rebuilt the game from the ground up,
00:55with modern visuals, spatial audio, and refined controls. You'll step back into that cursed
01:01village with twin sisters Mio and Mayu, armed only with the Camera Obscura, which now has
01:07new filters, zoom, and focus functions to make ghost encounters even more terrifying.
01:13The remake promises improved lighting, shadows, and atmosphere, so every corner feels more
01:18haunting than ever. And yes, holding Mayu's hand actually restores health and spirit power,
01:24which is both creepy and oddly wholesome. If you thought the original was unsettling,
01:29wait until you see these spirits in 4K HDR. It's basically a nightmare you can't pause.
01:35Horror fans, mark your calendars, because this is shaping up to be one of the scariest remakes
01:40of the decade. Now let's talk about one of the most legendary RPGs ever made, Star Wars Knights of
01:47the Old Republic. The remake has been in development hell for years, bouncing from Aspire to Saber
01:52Interactive, but as of late 2025, Sony confirmed it's still alive as a PS5 timed exclusive.
01:59No firm release date yet, but leaks suggest it's targeting late 2025 or beyond.
02:04This remake isn't just a visual overhaul, it's a full modernization of the classic Bioware RPG,
02:10bringing cinematic combat, updated visuals, and possibly reworked story beats while keeping the
02:16moral choice system intact. Fans are hyped to see Revan's saga retold with modern tech, though there's
02:21cautious optimism given the delays and rumors of cancellations. Still, the idea of revisiting
02:27the Old Republic era with next-gen fidelity is massive. If they nail the writing and keep
02:32the freedom of choice, this could be the definitive Star Wars RPG experience for a whole new generation.
02:37And here's a remake that's been teased, delayed, and memed to death. Prince of Persia The Sands of Time
02:45Remake. Originally announced back in 2020, it's been through multiple studios, but Ubisoft Montreal
02:51finally took over and confirmed a 2026 release window, with ESRB ratings hinting at a March 2026 launch.
02:59The game promises a faithful recreation of the classic, with updated visuals, smoother animations,
03:04and modernized combat. The rewind mechanic, the heart of Sands of Time, is being rebuilt to feel
03:10more fluid and cinematic, which is crucial because that's what made the original stand out.
03:14Fans are cautiously excited, since Ubisoft has been quiet for years, but recent leaks suggest the game
03:20is nearly ready, with assets uploaded to official servers and ratings locked in. If Ubisoft delivers,
03:26this could be the comeback of one of the most iconic action-adventure titles ever,
03:30finally giving the prince the spotlight he deserves in the modern era.
03:36Alright, Yakuza fans, this one's a double punch. RGG Studio is bringing us Yakuza Kiwami 3,
03:42a full remake of the 2009 classic, and pairing it with an entirely new spinoff called Dark Ties.
03:49Both drop on February 12th, 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X and S, PC, and Switch 2.
03:56Kiwami 3 reworks the original story of Kiryu, balancing life at the Morning Glory orphanage
04:02with the chaos of the Tojo clan, but now with modern visuals, smoother combat, and expanded sub-stories.
04:10Meanwhile, Dark Ties is a fresh narrative starring antagonist Yoshitaka Mine,
04:15giving fans a whole new perspective on the Yakuza world.
04:18Expect brutal street fights, karaoke nights, and side quests that range from heartfelt to hilariously bizarre.
04:25RGG is celebrating the series' 20th anniversary, so they're pulling out all the stops.
04:31If you thought Kiwami 1 and 2 were impressive,
04:34this combo release is shaping up to be one of the biggest Yakuza drops ever.
04:55Lara Croft is back, and this time she's diving straight into myth.
05:02Tomb Raider Legacy of Atlantis is set to launch in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X and S, and PC.
05:10Developed by Crystal Dynamics with Flying Wild Hog, this remake reimagines Lara's debut adventure,
05:16sending her across Peru, Greece, Egypt, and a mysterious Mediterranean island tied to the legend of Atlantis.
05:23The game promises cinematic visuals, fluid traversal, and puzzles that blend classic Tomb Raider design with modern mechanics.
05:31You'll be hunting for the Scion artifact, battling predators, and dodging deadly traps.
05:36Basically everything that made Lara iconic, but rebuilt for next-gen hardware.
05:41The announcement trailer teased sprawling ruins, lush jungles, and mythic contraptions that look straight out of an action movie.
05:48Fans are hyped because it's not just nostalgia, it's a chance to see Lara's origins retold with today's tech,
05:55giving her the epic scale she deserves.
05:57But it lit a fire, that still burns.
06:01I need to go further.
06:09To uncover the secrets of Atlantis.
06:13Some legends are destined to be retold.
06:30Now let's talk about a cult classic RPG from China that's finally getting its due.
06:37Sword and Fairy 4 Remake is in development with Unreal Engine 5, coming to PC with no set release date yet.
06:44Originally released in 2007, Sword and Fairy 4 is beloved for a qiansha-inspired fantasy world,
06:50mixing martial arts, mythology, and emotional storytelling.
06:53The remake promises gorgeous visuals, reworked combat, and a more cinematic presentation,
06:59while keeping the heart of the original intact.
07:01The trailer showed sweeping landscapes, mystical beasts, and characters caught in tragic destinies,
07:07basically the kind of drama R.E.P.G. fans live for.
07:10While Western audiences may not know the series as well, it's a cornerstone of Chinese R.E.P.Gs,
07:16and this remake could finally give it global recognition.
07:18If you're into Final Fantasy-style storytelling, but with a heavy dose of Chinese mythology,
07:24this is one to keep on your radar.
07:28Square Enix officially confirmed Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is dropping on February 5th,
07:342026, for PS5, Xbox Series X and S, PC, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2.

07:42It's a full reimagining of the PS1 classic, rebuilt in Unreal Engine with a vibrant, handcrafted art style
07:50that makes every island and dungeon pop with personality.
07:54The story still follows Oster and his friends as they restore lost civilizations by piecing together
08:00fragments of the past, but now with cinematic cutscenes, streamlined progression,
08:05and modernized turn-based combat.
08:07Square Enix even confirmed multiple additions, with early access for deluxe buyers.
08:13Fans are hyped because Dragon Quest VII was always massive, easily 100-plus hours,
08:18and this remake promises to make it more approachable without losing the epic scale.
08:23If you've ever wanted to dive into one of the most ambitious JRPGs ever,
08:28this is the definitive way to do it.
08:30Each forgotten land seems to have its own tale to tell,
08:35such as Frobisher, where Faraday Castle is overrun with automata.
08:40Robotic soldiers, hell-bent on lame waste to anyone who gets in their way.
08:46Then there's the haunting melodies of Hardly Paul,
08:49How wonderful!
08:50that seem to make the townspeople vanish in the dead of night.
08:54Or the mystery surrounding the departure of Albalad's very own queen.
09:00After their temple became overrun with terrible monsters.
09:05Or the poor souls caught in a rather amusing curse in Larka.
09:12Let's go and investigate!
09:14And the vibrant flaming festival of Emberdale.
09:16Where the locals toss fire back into the core of the volcano.

10:57Multiple insiders, including Dusk Golem,
11:01leaks that Bloober Team has been secretly working on a Silent Hill 1 remake,
11:05targeting a 2027 release for PS5 and PC.
11:09Konami already confirmed Silent Hill 2 remake, Townfall, and Silent Hill F,
11:14but this project is supposedly part of their long-term revival plan.
11:18The remake would reimagine Harry Mason's terrifying search for his daughter in the foggy town,
11:23with modern visuals, reworked combat, and psychological horror dialed up to 11.
11:29While Konami hasn't officially announced it yet,
