Limited Run Games, in collaboration with Square Enix, has made an exciting announcement: the release of the Gex Trilogy for modern consoles. Fans of the clever gecko will soon be able to experience the classic platformer adventure on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC (via Steam). The collection includes Gex, Gex: Enter the Gecko, and Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko.
Hex, a charismatic and pop culture-savvy gecko, first appeared on the gaming scene in 1994. Developed by Crystal Dynamics, Hex quickly became a mascot character for the 32-bit generation. The first game, called Gex, was originally released on the 3DO, PC and SEGA Saturn before coming to the PlayStation. It introduced players to the world of Gex and was a 2D platformer filled with pop culture references and challenging levels based on classic movies and TV shows.
Gex: Enter the Gecko marked the return of the gecko and its first foray into 3D, this time gracing the PlayStation, Nintendo 64 and PC platforms. It was a solid early 3D platformer that expanded the series’ humorous take on the genre.
Finally, Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko took players into an action-packed 3D adventure on multiple platforms including PlayStation, Nintendo 64, and PC.
There aren’t many details about this upcoming collection yet, and it’s unclear at this point if this version will feature simple ports or full-on remakes of classic games.
