This week marked the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 - a remake/remaster of the original two games in the beloved series, which first released all the way back in 1999 and 2000 respectively.
It would have been hard to imagine back then that the two PS1 classics would receive visually stunning, full-blown remasters in the year 2020, but here we are! And so, it's left us curious as to which modern games will also receive that treatment in twenty years time in 2040, if indeed remasters are even still a thing by then!
With that in mind, we want to know your thoughts. Will Grand Theft Auto V be getting a full VR makeover in 2040 with state-of-the-art graphics? Will Fortnite make its long-awaited return with a radically overhauled look?
Let us know which games you think will still be getting remasters in 20 years' time below.

GTA5.....again. sadly.
All of them will have been remade twice in that amount of time.
I love the GTA 5 jokes. It'll be the same game in 20years with R* still pushing GTA online.
In seriousness, I think games like Ori could end up being redone one day. Maybe they'd do a Streets of Rage 4 anniversary edition if the sequels don't happen... Maybe we'll have THPS 1+2 Version 2 even.
I would say probably GTA V..
Breath of the Wild
Witcher 3
Cyberpunk
Skyrim
Spider-Man
Basically the biggest sellers that are primarily solo games is my bet. However I’d WANT to see some less popular stuff like Sunset Overdrive, Blur, and the burnout series
Practically all of them, because people will still be pulling their hair out with excitement and throwing their wallets at every game they ever enjoyed, simply because it has a fresh coat of paint.
Me included, because Tony Hawk 1+2 is awesome.
Oh wow. No idea where to start. Pretty incredible to think what gaming could be like in 20 years time
Gta 5 will be like the holodeck on Star Trek and you can eat the realistic steak.
Nice topic, Fraser!
For me, is like to see crazy remakes TODAY of manic miner, JSW, with incredible graphics, I know Retrospec have done wonders, but something really over the top. Hard to describe here.
Most games have a style and might be wrong to try and re master and improve that, but in truth I'd like a photo realistic version of Spyro just to show that we could, sod the staying true to the original cartoon style!
But to answer the question - enter (and exit) the gundeon would be my candidate
but that's maybe cos I don't like the graphics, love the gameplay, mind you, is that the case in point here?
I still want a proper remaster of Mario 64 personally. Was hoping the 35th anniversary was going to have it but looks like I’ll be waiting a bit longer!
Other than that I’d say nier automata. While it’s a superb game, it looks a bit poop so a remake in 20 years would be welcome!
@eggsbox I agree about Mario 64. Even though the game still looks fine in my opinion, after odyssey and the crash and spyro upgrades, it does make you wonder why they didn’t give it a lick of paint.
It’s wierd thinking about current games being remade/remastered in 20 years. Maybe something like the first Dead Rising.
