During Limited Run Game’s LRG3 presentation, the company revealed swanky new collector’s editions for the classic Jurassic Park games.
Limited Run Games is getting in on the fun of Jurassic Park‘s 30th anniversary by bringing the classic JP games to modern platforms via swanky collector’s editions. The new versions will feature some modernized updates (so they should be a little less punishing than you remember), while keeping the core experience intact.
Even better, for collectors, they’re offering new RETRO cartridges for the games as well (just like they did for the various Star Wars games). So you’ll be able to pick up and play these classics on their original consoles, or just keep them for collecting purposes. Either way you go, it’s pretty damn neat.
Limited Run’s Carbon Engine has re-animated a series of fan-favorite retro Jurassic Park game titles that will receive both physical and digital releases. Pre-orders for the physical editions will begin on Sept. 1 and end Oct. 15th on limitedrungames.com.
The 8-and 16-bit era of Jurassic Park games has returned. This release includes a lineup of classic titles and adds new features, including save states for each game, new in-game maps, and various quality-of-life fixes that bring these titles into the modern era of gaming. The additions and extras added to this collection are carefully curated to celebrate the legacy of the 1993 film from Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment and the love that the Limited Run and Carbon teams share for the blockbuster franchise.
The Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection will come with the following fan-favorite titles, originally released across NES, Game Boy and SNES:
Jurassic Park
Jurassic Park Part 2: The Chaos ContinuesIn addition to this collection, Limited Run will also reissue Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park Part 2: The Chaos Continues on NES, Game Boy and SNES cartridges. In celebration of the Jurassic Park 30th anniversary, Limited Run is upgrading these cartridges with amber-colored shells and with a series of premium Collector’s Editions that feature light-up cartridges, numbered slipcovers, and a collectible set of posters. Fans are invited to re-experience these classics on their original hardware—with a new twist.
