Rare Replay Includes Glimpses At Unreleased Rare Games
This week's Rare Replay brings you a studio lifetime-spanning 30 games in one package on Xbox One. The package contains a crazy amount of classics from Rare's archive of hits, but if you dig a little deeper into the package, you may find something even more interesting.
In a section called "Rare Revealed," players can get a peek behind the curtain at some of the work that Rare has done that never saw store shelves. In addition to the canceled follow-up to Kameo: Elements of Power, players can also learn more about games like Tailwind, Sundown, The Fast and the Furriest, and Black Widow. The only caveat is that you must unlock them through extensively playing the games included in Rare Replay. You can check out quick looks at some of the unreleased games below.
Rare Replay releases tomorrow on Xbox One. If you'd like to read more about how the collection turned out, you can check out Kyle Hilliard's review or watch our Test Chamber. You can also see how the many games of Rare Replay scored when we reviewed them when they originally released.
Our Take
We've seen quite a few retro game collections over the past several years, and it's great to see Rare paying respects to its past in such an awesome way. Hopefully more studios will embrace projects that didn't quite work out in the end like Rare does with Rare Replay.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
