Today we finally have a confirmation on the Homeworld Remastered Collection release date. This new title is a revamped version of the first two installments in this popular strategy series. Gearbox Software not only confirmed the title’s release date today but also as promised it showed off some gameplay footage as well earlier today at the Inside Gearbox Software Panel that’s taking place at PAX South.
Both Homeworld and Homeworld 2 are included in Homeworld Remastered Collection. For this remastered version Gearbox worked with main members of the original development team at Relic and even brought “passionate” fans into the process.
It brings new voice recordings from the original cast, a fully remastered score as well as improved graphics. Compatibility updates for the original versions of both games are included in this title as well.
Gearbox demonstrated the changes at PAX South by running both the old and the remastered versions side by side. Evidently there’s a lot more detail to be found in the remastered version, space looks lovelier, and battlegrounds more vibrant.
Gearbox also confirmed today that development work on Homeworld Shipbreakers is underway with the folks at Blackbird Interactive, it was first announced back in 2013 as a prequel to the first game.
Homeworld Remastered Collection will be released for PC on February 25th. It will be available from Steam for $34.99.
