    DuckTales Remastered and Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara Announced by Capcom

    Capcom, during their panel event at PAX East today, announced three returning classics from its catalog. These games are DuckTales, Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom, and Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow of Mystara. All three will be released over the coming months.

    DuckTales Remastered has seen the development team take the levels and layout from the original 1989 release as a foundation before expanding upon them to significantly enhance the gameplay experience but where this update truly impresses is its graphics and sound. All of the visuals from the 8-bit game have been beautifully re-created as hand-drawn and animated sprites, across a backdrop of luscious, re-envisioned level backgrounds. Furthermore, original Disney Character Voices talent, including some from the cartoon TV series, bring in-game characters to life with charm and wit, while the classic melodies of the original soundtrack are given a modern twist.

    DuckTales also includes a new tutorial level and a Scrooge McDuck Museum that lets players track their stats.

    Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara is a double pack of the two Dungeons & Dragons games mentioned previously. This will be a digital release arriving on PS3, Xbox Live Arcade, the Wii U, and PC this June for $14.99 (USD).

    Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara offers seamless drop-in/drop-out online gameplay in one of two modes. In addition to the classic arcade mode with its branching paths and multiple endings, players can utilize the all new House Rules feature and customize gameplay for a completely different experience.

    The new extras don’t stop there. The Character Visualizer lets players track which characters they and their friends use most often and can help create a more balanced multiplayer dungeon party, or point out which characters are most under-used; with further gameplay stats tracked via a global leaderboard. Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara also includes a Challenge system that sets players in-game goals in return for level-ups and coins which can be spent in the Vault: a treasure trove of unlockables and gameplay loot. Finally, owners of the Wii U version will be able to use the GamePad touch screen to select spells and items with ease, allowing for a more streamlined gameplay experience.

    That DuckTales game just brought memories of me going to my cousins house and playing the hell out of it, good times.
