Argonaut Games has announced it is working on a remaster of Croc 2 Kingdom of the Gobbos, coming to PC, XBOX, and PlayStation, with wishlisting available now.
The original game was just called “Croc 2”, but “Kingdom of the Gobbos” was the name used during the original game’s development, so it makes sense to be called this for the remaster. It’ll be coming to Switch, PS4, PlayStation 5, XBOX, and Windows PC (GOG and Steam).
There will be “modern enhancements, preserving the feel of the original while introducing another generation to its enduring charm”, says the publisher, adding that this game will add the “Croc2Pedia”: “As with the Crocipedia in the first remaster, Argonaut Games is once again assembling an in-game digital museum. The Croc2pedia offers fans a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Croc’s sophomore adventure, including never-before-seen development materials, cut content, and interviews with the original and remaster teams, tracing the game’s creative evolution from early concepts to final completion.”
Check out the new trailer, revealing the game:
“We’ve made no secret of the fact that if Croc did well in the market, the obvious next project would be to remaster Croc 2,” said Mike Arkin, co-CEO of Argonaut Games. “Croc’s successful return exceeded what we hoped for, and that made the decision easy. Croc 2 was originally built on a totally different engine to Croc, posing its own set of remastering challenges, but the early work we did to validate our approach paid off.”
“Croc 2 was always the plan, once we saw how fans embraced the first remaster,” said Jez San OBE, Argonaut’s founder. “It’s a real pleasure to see the next chapter in Croc’s story brought to today’s modern platforms, and I can’t wait for both longtime fans and new players to experience it in glorious HD.”
“Being resurrected by an army of sycophantic Dantinis wasn’t on my bingo card, but it worked,” said Baron Dante, Croc’s arch-nemesis. “That irksome crocodile ruined my last plan, so this time it’s personal!”
Croc 2 Kingdom of the Gobbos is aiming for a Q4 2026 release, and is coming to PC, XBOX, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch.
