Another classic platforming hero dating back to the first PlayStation returns - hopefully - in glory. After the resurrection of GEX trilogy.

Unfortunately, for now, the American publisher has not shared too many details. All we know is that the company plans to recreate the entire trilogy - learned that the famous Croc will also live to see remasters.

GEX Trilogy is headed for PC (Steam), Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. We will learn more about the bundle in unspecified future. Who knows, maybe after - we hope - a successful return from retirement Agent GEX will follow in the footsteps of Shantae and Crash and finally get a brand new game as well?

GEX has never played in the premier league of platformers with, together Crash, Mario and company. It also never made it to the sixth generation consoles (i.e., the PlayStation 2 and its rivals; the last, third game in the series was released in 1999.). The only trace left of GEX 4 are concept art (via Reddit), and a prototype of the canceled spin-off, leaked online last year (via Hidden Palace).

Nevertheless, the series sold a total of 15 million copies and still has its fans today, especially the second game. Mainly thanks to a large dose of humor and numerous references to American pop culture and cinema, but also well-designed levels and the person of TV addict Gex (in the American edition of Enter the Gecko voiced by comedian Dan Gould).
