Observer Gets an Expanded and a Remastered Version

Bloober Team had developed a dark cyberpunk thriller known as Observer in 2017. The studio recently announced that they are planning to release a remastered and expanded version of the game. The developers have decided to call this new version, ‘Observer: System Redux’. While for a long time, Bloober Team had their lips sealed about the new version, they finally released some information.

The development team confirmed that the remastered version will be a console exclusive. Therefore, they will release it only for the PlayStation and the Xbox, and that too only on the next-gen consoles, namely PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Observer graphics comparison

The biggest difference between the 2017 version and the new version is remastered graphics. To support the next-gen consoles, which feature 8K support, Bloober decided to optimize their game’s graphics.

Here, players can see the difference between the original version and System Redux. The graphics look much more realistic and smooth. Bloober also released a video detailing the changes that Redux brings to the game and how the role of consoles is very essential.

In the video, Game Developer Tomasz Bentkowski can be heard saying, “We have been able to create more immersive worlds with the new generation consoles.”

The game appears to focus on how the new consoles would change the future of games. Tomasz credited the next-generation 4K technology for helping the game depict an even more dystopian and cyberpunk world. All this wouldn’t be possible without making effects like rain, fog, smoke, etc., look much more realistic.

New Features Trailer

Bloober Team also released a trailer highlighting the new features that they’ve added to the game to make it different from the original one. The features include next-gen graphics, 4K/60FPS support, and ray-tracing, among others.

The game looks very promising. Furthermore, it makes perfect use of all the advantages offered by next-gen consoles. More details and updates about the game are available on its website.
