Chex Quest gets HD remake
Released in 1996, Chex Quest was a perfect FPS for the youth. Based on the Doom engine, the game follows Chex Warrior’s journey to save the planet of Bazoik. Chex Quest made history by being the first video game to be a prize in cereal boxes. 24 years after its release, the game has been remade, and old-school fans are freaking out.
Chex Quest HD was announced back in 2016 by Chex Quest lead artist Charles Jacobi. The remake, which uses Unreal Engine 4, includes four-player local multiplayer to the mix. You can unlock special characters by using codes found on specially-marked bags of Chex. You can check out the trailer below. Chex Quest HD is available for free download on Steam.
Following the original release of Chex Quest, two sequels were released, including 2008’s Chex Quest 3.
Since 2009, MP3s and NPCs owner Terrance Pryor has written about music, conventions, cosplay, and video games for publications such as AXS, Examiner, Fake Walls, and Ranker. Based out of Los Angeles, the former rock concert promoter/radio host can be seen talking about rock music on AXS TV’s Music’s Greatest Mysteries and discussing music and whatever else on their Black Man Talks Rock channel on YouTube.
