Physical Edition of ‘The Thing: Remastered’ Coming This June

After bringing fans their fantastic remaster of The Thing this past December, Nightdive and Atari are giving them (along with physical media junkies) another reason to shell out: a physical edition of The Thing: Remastered for the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5. Created in collaboration with Universal Products & Experiences, the physical edition of The Thing: Remastered hits on June 25, which happens to be the 43rd anniversary of John Carpenter‘s 1982 cult classic film.

Not only that, but there will be a Deluxe Edition of the game! Here’s the breakdown for what you get:

• Physical copy of the game
• Deluxe Edition box
• Steelbook Case
• Key art poster
• Captain Blake’s ID card replica
• Sew-on patches

The Standard Edition will retail for $29.99, while the Deluxe Edition of The Thing: Remastered will set you back $49.99. Pre-orders are available now.

The Thing: Remastered is a faithful restoration of Computer Artwork’s 2002 third-person survival horror shooter inspired by John Carpenter’s genre-defining 1982 film, The Thing. Nightdive Studios has upgraded this cult classic for the modern era through its proprietary KEX Engine for play on current-generation gaming devices up to a 4K resolution at 120FPS. Improvements to character models, textures, and animations have been hand-crafted by Nightdive Studios, with the implementation of advanced 3D rendering for updated lighting and atmospheric effects — for a suspenseful and disgustingly detailed remaster that reanimates the thrilling game for modern audiences.

The Thing: Remastered is available digitally on PC via Steam and GOG, as well as on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch.
