After weeks of rumors, leaks, and speculation, THQ Nordic has finally confirmed that Destroy All Humans! is making a comeback in the form of a full-blown remake of the first game. The Destroy All Humans! remake will boast improved graphics, but any other potential improvements are unavailable at this time.
It's been confirmed that the Destroy All Humans! remake is an "exact" remake of the original, meaning that gameplay should be basically the same between versions, albeit with slight improvements here and there. It doesn't sound like fans can expect any substantial additions to the story or anything like that, but we'll have to wait for more information to be certain.
At the time of this writing, all we have of the Destroy All Humans! remake is a cinematic trailer that sets up the story by showing Crypto arrive on Earth and start hypnotizing people. The trailer doesn't reveal much, but it does confirm that the Destroy All Humans! remake will keep the original's humor intact.
The announcement of a Destroy All Humans! remake seems to confirm the leaked THQ Nordic E3 2019 lineup. The leak has been correct about two games so far, those being Destroy All Humans! and Darksiders Genesis, so it seems like a safe bet that fans can expect the other leaked THQ Nordic games to make an appearance at E3 2019. These include Biomutant, Desperados, Monkey King, and Monster Jam.
Meanwhile, it's possible we will get a more substantial look at Destroy All Humans! at E3 itself in the coming days. The cinematic trailer is nice and all, but fans will no doubt want to see some gameplay to compare it to the original game.
Speaking of the original game, those who want to revisit Crypto's adventure can do so long before the remake launches next year. That's because the original Destroy All Humans! is on PS4 and Xbox One, the former even offering trophy support. It could serve as a solid refresher before players see what the Destroy All Humans! remake is all about.
Destroy All Humans! will launch in 2020 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
