Here's a blast from the past! The classic 80s SEGA platformer Alex Kidd in Miracle World is getting a remake for various platforms including Xbox, set to arrive sometime in 2021.

The new trailer for Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX was revealed during yesterday's IGN Summer of Gaming event. Its Steam page reveals it'll include "striking new art and tighter, more fluid controls," additional modes including ‘Classic Mode’ and ‘Boss Rush Mode’, new and remastered music, and new levels which "expand the lore of the original and feature new enemy types and vehicles."

You'll also be able to jump back and forth between the enhanced graphics and a recreation of the original Sega Master System version's art style. That sounds pretty cool to us!
