Clock Tower ‘Port+’ announced for PS5, Xbox Series, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC
Gematsu Source
Publishers WayForward and Limited Run Games have announced an enhanced version of Super Famicom survival horror game Clock Tower for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC (Steam). It will launch in early 2024 with support for English, Japanese, French, Italian, German, and Spanish language support.
Here is an overview of the game, via WayForward:
About
This enhanced version of the original 16-bit Clock Tower marks the first time this terrifying initial adventure in the popular horror series will officially be translated and released in North America and Europe.
Originally released on Super Famicom in 1995 in Japan, Clock Tower traps players in the haunting confines of the Barrows family manor, where they’ll be pursued by Scissorman, a murderous, shears-wielding psychopath. As teenage orphan Jennifer Simpson, players will use a point-and-click interface to explore the mansion and search every disturbing corner to find items, reveal secrets, and discover ways to survive Scissorman’s assaults. Without any offensive capabilities, Jennifer must rely on her wits and resourcefulness if she has any hope of escaping with her life and earning one of the game’s multiple endings. A tense atmosphere, chilling sound effects, detailed 2D animations, and randomized elements to maximize replayability demonstrate why Clock Tower is considered a groundbreaking pioneer in the survival-horror genre.
Harnessing the power of Limited Run Games’ Carbon Engine, this new edition of Clock Tower retains the authentic gameplay, graphics, and sound of the original version while also adding modern features and enhancements. These include a new vocal theme song performed by Mary McGlynn (Silent Hill series), a new animated opening, motion-comic cutscenes before and after the game, a bonus art gallery, border artwork, save states, multiple language options, and more.
Clock Tower will be published digitally in North America and Europe by WayForward, followed by a physical version that will be offered on select platforms by Limited Run Games. Further details, including information on the physical preorder window, will be announced at a later date. For the latest news, please visit www.wayforward.com and www.limitedrungames.com, and follow @wayforward and @limitedrungames on social media.

Bue-Buenos Dias Muchachalatas- chachalatas- Chacha-
Limited Run Games did a presentation a few days ago, and my personal highlight was Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore! Such an exciting prospect I waited... a week to do something about it! A positively lovely homage to a pair of infamous adventure games that helped give birth to the grand Dadaist art movement known as YouTube Poop. It had me like "Ye! (brief pause) YESSSSSSSSS!" and to my friends I was like "Look at this FUCKn SHIT!" but in a *click* Nice way.
Seriously, words cannot express how much of my current appreciation for the strange and the terrible was truly shaped by this nonsense. From the ancient cravings of "Lotsa SPAGHETTI!" and "Dinner" to the extremely high concept works like Jeff Lindblom's Deltarune covers and Schaffrillas's Sharkslayer saga, and even the legitimately terrifying (and hilarious) Mr. Krabs's Unquenchable Bloodlust by Emperor Lemon.
Why am I sauce sauce- so excited for this game though? Well, it's quite simple Mah Boi, it takes a special kind of understanding to craft a good game out of a mold so... riddled with lumps. And if you ask me, WE WAS ROBBED of adventure games like this for a while!
Alright, I'll stop. What I'm getting at is "Go buy Arzette when it comes out because I really wanna see people take things they love and make new things out of them more often", ya dig? Right I'm gonna go see a man about a ship. That sails in the morning! I'm makin' waffles! for the trip~!

Probably the biggest box of anything I ever received. Getting this shit made me feel like it was Christmas and I haven't felt that for actual Christmases in a good minute.
