Sir, You Are Being Hunted: Reinvented Edition announced for the Nintendo Switch
Big Robot’s Sir, You Are Being Hunted will arrive on console for the first time since its 2013 release on Steam.
Announced yesterday, a remastered version titled Sir, You Are Being Hunted: Reinvented Edition will make its way to the Nintendo Switch in early 2022. The remastered title, which is being developed by Den of Thieves Games, will also be wishlisted on Steam right now. Owners of the original game have gained a new patch fixing previous issues.
Big Robot CEO Jim Rossignol said this about the remastered title:
“Nearly a decade on from the original game, it’s a surprise and a wonder to be able to return to our beloved world of robo-murder, tea, and biscuits, and to finally see a Big Robot game appear on console. This new, remastered title is a standalone game with original features, new controls, new quality of life options, and, of course, modernised visuals.
I’m also delighted to see Den of Thieves support the original game with the 1.5 patch - our first update in six years! This patch fixes many of the issues that have cropped up over time, such as re-establishing multiplayer, legacy bugs, and once again making the game playable for Mac users.”
Den of Thieves Games lead programmer Anne Wijning said this:
“We are very excited about showing the fans what we’ve been working on for so long. I’ve personally played this game since 2014, when it was still in Early Access, and working on this project was a dream-come-true.”
