A slew of Lucky Luke titles will be made available on modern consoles early next year.
Revealed today, Lucky Luke: The Lonesome Cowboy Collection will be released on January 13 via the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC (via Steam). The collection includes Lucky Luke (Game Boy Color, 1996), Lucky Luke (SNES, 1997), Lucky Luke: On the Daltons Trail (PlayStation, 1998), Lucky Luke: Desperado Train (Game Boy Color, 2000), Lucky Luke: Western Fever (PlayStation, 2001), and Lucky Luke: Wanted!

A synopsis for Lucky Luke: The Lonesome Cowboy Collection reads:
Every game features quality-of-life improvements, including improved graphics, save states, achievements, visual filters, custom screen bezels, and rebindable controls. “How to Play” guides onboard unfamiliar players and help them solve difficult challenges.
The bonus Frontier Experience is an interactive first-person museum and shooting gallery that allows players to explore the history of the iconic gunslinger firsthand. Players can explore western locales, enjoy target-shooting minigames, search for collectibles and discover original comic and character art.
The Lonesome Cowboy Collection reunites Infogrames with the popular western franchise. Infogrames published several Lucky Luke titles in the late 90s and early 2000’s, including the incredibly rare Playstation Platinum edition of Lucky Luke: Western Fever.
The collection includes four games that were only released here in Europe and never made it to the United States, including the 1997 SNES release of Lucky Luke, the 2000 Game Boy Color release of Lucky Luke: Desperado Train, the 2001 PlayStation release of Lucky Luke: Western Fever, and the 2001 Game Boy Advance release of Lucky Luke: Wanted!
