This is called the definitive release of the classic 90s cult classic.
Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition

The "definitive release of the cult classic" 90's FPS, Rise of the Triad, will arrive in early 2023. Dubbed Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition, this release will be remastered to run at 4K resolutions and 60FPS. It will be released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam.

This updated release of Rise of the Triad is built on Nightdive's KEX Engine. In addition to the resolution and framerate bumps, this release will also allow for an increased field-of-view, and will feature support for cloud saves, achievements, multiplayer support, "and much more."


In Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition, players gear up with a five-person task force known as the H.U.N.T. (High-Risk United Nations Taskforce) to infiltrate a mysterious (and exceedingly dangerous) island full of maniacal cultists. With updated HUD and UI elements, players can enjoy the classic campaign *plus* restored cut content and a new, original story episode in the Rise of the Triad universe. Once they’ve blasted their way through the single-player campaign, players can grab a few pals and engage in some old-school multiplayer COMMbatt deathmatch with multiple modes!
