Who saw this one coming?

A shiny, new remastered version of *Grim Fandango*—the legendary game to feature a tux-wearing, Pall Mall-dragging skull man—is on its way to PS4 and Vita.

For the uninitiated, *Grim Fandango* is an old, famous adventure game (from 1998) that carries an air of mystique for a couple of reasons. One, it has a hyper-imaginative Mexican noir scenario that could be described as a Day of the Dead celebration meets *Casablanca*.

Two, it benefits from being *that* inaccessible cult title from *that* prestigious director, you know, like how you used to only be able to watch David Lynch’s *Lost Highway* on Laserdisc. *Grim Fandango* has a bit of a reputation as funny-man game designer Tim Schafer’s lost gem, seeing how it proved difficult to emulate, copies were rare, and they only ran on extinct computers.

So, yeah, those fist-pumps on the part of journalists at the Sony presser were justified, probably.
