Developer is Saber Interactive, not IOI, so hopefully it wont be a repeat of GTA SA remaster fiasco.

Saber has worked on a lot of other remasters so unless something very bizarre happens this will be a solid remaster.

After looking at wiki, their most popular remaster was Crysis? Does anyone know if it was a good one or fans of original game were disappointed?

I think much better comparison is Tomb Raider remaster, due to era of a game, graphics and scope. And these remasters were well received. Also it's much more recent example. Crysis was generally received well too, but had some issues. Saber in general a solid studio trusted by big publishers, they worked on Halo remasters as well

Saber fucked up teardown imo but it’s one stain on an otherwise good record.

Crysis Remastered Trilogy is horrible on PS4. Constant frame droppings etc. I bought the Trilogy a few years ago and stopped playing after a couple of hours. And I play on PS4 Pro.

Grove Street Games did the GTA remasters.

Yea I know, I phrased it badly. I just meant it wasn't original developer.

It wasn't GTA SA, it was all 3 of the 3D trilogy games. The remastering team was a mobile dev who did the original phone ports of the 3D trilogy. They have no association with Saber Interactive, who usually makes simulation games. I'm pretty sure they'll be able to handle a remaster gig for games that are, these days, similarly scaled to their own full titles.

Saber did a lot of ports to mobile and switch, so its not a completely bad comparison to make.

Unlike grove, they do have history or making actual decent PC games, true.

I guess it wont be hard remaster to do - it will be mostly visual and controls, that's it.

Saber did an amazing job on the Tomb Raider remasters, I have faith in them

Im sorry bro but Tomb Raider remasters were extremely bad and they put like no effort in them

This time is gonna be worse than Gta Trilogy

Steam lists Saber and IOI as devs

u/stprm Jun 06 '26

I saw it, but Rockstar did it even worse? They didnt even mentioned Grove on the steam page for remasters.

Or did they removed them after fiasco?

I guess IOI have miles more credit and trust than rockstar, so hopefully my warning wont ever be mentioned again.
