Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap launches tomorrow, April 18th, and today publisher DotEmu and developer LizardCube have released the game’s final trailer.
The trailer showcases the various characters you can play as, the super awesome retro/HD feature which allows you to switch in real-time back and forth from the game’s original 8-bit graphics, and the latest addition to the game – Wonder Girl!
DotEmu, developer and publisher specializing in modern releases of beloved retro games, and Lizardcube, are thrilled to announce that Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap will be available on April 18th for the PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch (and a few weeks after on PC).
Boasting beautiful, hand-drawn animations and a re-orchestrated soundtrack, the cult classic returns with a unique blend of exploration, action, and adventure. Play as Lizard-Man, Mouse-Man, Piranha-Man, Lion-Man, and Hawk-Man, and use their unique abilities to uncover the land’s deepest secrets. Switch in real-time between the original retro graphics and the visually stunning modern remake, and input your old Sega Master System passcode to unlock all of your old saves and progression – just how you left them in 1989.
