This cult classic which made a name for itself on PlayStation 2 already came to Nintendo Switch earlier in the year and now it looks like Krome Studios is gearing up for launch on Sonys system.
Ty The Tasmanian Tiger Remastered PS4 Release IsntWe know that because a Trophy list has appeared on Exophase, indicating that a PS4 release isnt far away.
Youll have to 100 the game, defeat various bosses, and acquire different types of boomerangs. This remaster was made possible by a Kickstarter which very quickly raised 132,000 over the course of its campaign. The project was funded in the space of just three days and now it looks like PS4 owners wont need to wait too much longer before they can get their hands on this classic platformer. Outside of video games, he can be found tirelessly supporting Derby County, unfortunately. Didnt want to buy it on the switch, glad its finally around the corner. Seriously not many 3D platformers exist anymore outside of the formulaic Nintendo ones or other remasters. Clearly the original developers had a lot of passion for this game. TY the Tasmanian Tiger HD is a product of both of these trends. Originally released in 2002 for GameCube, Xbox and PS2, TY the Tasmanian Tiger is a 3D mascot platformer in the same vein as all the other late nineties and early noughties 3D mascot platformers. After losing his family to Boss Cass and an alternate world known as The Dreaming, TY is the only remaining Tasmanian tiger in the Australian Outback. Its the plucky marsupials (Tasmanian tigers arent actually big cats) job to hunt down and collect five Talismans spread out across the land in order to power a machine that will open up a pathway to The Dreaming. Ty The Tasmanian Tiger Remastered Free To ExploreIn total, youll need to collect at least seventeen eggs before you can clear a given level and, even then, there will be a boss fight to contend with before TY is finally free to explore a new area. TY and his Outback world have never looked so good and the vibrant colours and cartoony Australian wildlife are a delight to behold. The Aussie humour and banter between the animal characters is also top-notch, and still draws plenty of laughs twenty years after it was first recorded. Kudos to the original voice cast for putting in some excellent performances. There is also the issue of enemies feeling seriously underpowered; with a simple bite or swing of the boomerang you can take down most of Boss Casss henchmen with one hit. While TY is a game designed to be laid back, it does feel like its lacking in the excitement that comes from tougher enemy encounters. New skins for TY are fun to mess around with and HD Rumble contributes to immersion. A new Hardcore Mode also goes some way to alleviating the lacklustre combat present in the base game, but a few more updates might have been nice. The new visuals are great, but some camera angle fixes and a few more gameplay updates would have been appreciated. However, this is a game that will easily TY you over until the next big release, especially if youre a fan of the original game. Went back and booted up the original to compare, and the game is definitely less finicky, theyve tweaked the controls. Still not perfect, but honestly most of the faults left in this game would require a true remake to resolve, or just ports of the later games that were made with the benefit of hindsight. Definitely would recommend to anyone whos interested in good 3D platforming and heavy exploration, so long as you dont mind combat being nearly a non-factor. Did you guys even notice there is a hardcore mode i havent tried it yet but im sure it makes it harder. Kao the Kangaroo Tonic Trouble Gift The original Jak Daxter games Maybe, if were lucky, a new (or new) 3D Rayman. I can see why they remastered this as I think it may be one IP they actually own of the games they made. Plus seeing as the game in 18 years old now it will be new to many who play it. Theyve slowly been rebuilding, having moved into the mobile space for awhile before now remastering old titles. The models and very basic shading look pretty terrible to me not even close to all the other 3D platformers on Switch from a visual POV.
