I immediately thought this was about Final Fantasy for whatever reason and even as someone who didn't hate 13 my first thought was, "What?! Why?"

This is much better news. It has been a long time since I played XIII and I remember loving it.

Oh. Why isn't Ubisoft involved? I made sure to check the logos. Now I'm confused. The game was taken off gog so whoever published it there (was it Ubi?) lost the rights but I'd assume that means the novel rights they had to make and publish the game, not that they lost the rights to their own creation/content. I dunno.

So, this is going to be Play-Magic's debut release? They could have picked a better name, but they definitely picked a good game.

So, will David Duchovny not suck if he's back for VO duties this time? Sounded like he was barely awake the entire time (about the same as his work in Area51 to be honest) during the original.

Good question, I'll ask and see if they respond.

I've got a copy of the original on GOG. I did start the game but never finished it for some reason (wasn't due to lack of enjoyment, probably just busy, forgot, or got occupied with another game).

Anyway, it's always nice to see older games, especially those that haven't been available at all digitally, get a makeover and re-release.

The art style needs a bit of tweaking, IMO. It's a little bit too glossy and glowy. Otherwise, it looks solid. Hopefully it plays solid, too. One of the problems with XIII is that it was a relatively stodgy FPS in terms of pacing and encounter design.
 
Yeah, tone down the glossiness and highlights and i think it would look much better too. I can see a ton of Reshade settings for the PC version being available so there's that at least.
