The Original Clock Tower Is Getting Remastered for Modern Consoles - IGN
At a presentation event held by Limited Run Games, the company unveiled that a remaster of the original Clock Tower is currently in development with a release slated for early next year.
In an LRG3 presentation event held by Limited Run Games today, the company confirmed that a remaster was in the works and development is a collaboration effort between Capcom, Sunsoft, WayForward, and Limited Run. This remaster also marks the first time the original Clock Tower game will see an official release outside of Japan, which up until this point only had fan translations.
"Starting with River City Girls Zero, we've been bringing these Japanese-only releases to a Western audience," WayForward CEO and Founder Voldi Way said in the announcement video.
Clock Tower was originally released in 1995 and is not to be confused with the PlayStation 1 game Clock Tower released in 1996. The franchise only spawned four games, with the most recent release, Clock Tower 3, launching over two decades ago on the PlayStation 2, with the series remaining dormant until today's announcement.
Clock Tower remastered will launch on PC (via Steam), PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch early next year.
I'm so beyond happy to finally see my favorite game of all time getting this remaster, for so many reasons. One is that it's the first time Clock Tower will see a Western release in 28 years, and another is that it'll be on a bunch of consoles, so literally, everyone can play it now if they want to. Finally, the reason I'm most excited is that it means the Clock Tower series is no longer dead and buried; I have so much optimism that Sunsoft and Capcom will work on the series again if First Fear sells like I want and need it to.
