Argonaut Games, which was shut down in 2004 and hasn’t existed in any capacity since 2007, is back, and it’s bringing a Croc remaster with it. This week, the studio announced its relaunch after a nearly 20-year hiatus, and its first order of business is to launch a remaster of Croc Legend of the Gobbos on PC and consoles.

Argonaut Games confirmed its relaunch and the remaster of Croc in a press release and teaser trailer on YouTube. Argonaut Games Co-CEO Gary Sheinweld was a veteran of the original incarnation of the studio and was thrilled to be able to bring Argonaut back to life:

Fellow Co-CEO Mike Arkin was also excited, not just about Argonaut’s relaunch, but about making Croc Legend of the Gobbos its first major project:

The teaser trailer for the Croc Legend of the Gobbos remaster didn’t give dates or platforms, but it looks like we’ll be looking for both before the end of 2024. Fans of the series have been pining for something new for years, so stay tuned to the Croc Series tag for more updates and coverage of the game here at Shacknews.
