Ratalaika has announced that they?re publishing a collection of the two modern NES titles of the The Adventures of Panzer series. The Adventures of Panzer: Legacy Collection comes to Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, and Switch on January 26, 2024.
The original Adventures of Panzer title was released back in 2021 by Pixelcraft Games. It was built in NES Maker (https://www.thenew8bitheroes.com/), which means that it runs on original NES hardware. A Kickstarter in 2022 (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/panzer/the-adventures-of-panzer/description) allowed them to also publish the game on cartridge. The Adventures of Panzer 2 followed it up in 2023, and also went through Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/panzer/the-adventures-of-panzer-2/) for physical publishing.

Both games are action platformers, both touting a humorous and light-hearted narrative. The first game sees the eponymous Panzer traveling to five different levels to try and assemble his old team. The second game, set a year after the events of the first, sees that team fighting ?a new evil.? In addition to being longer at 9 levels, you're also able to switch between the four characters.
Not much is said about the added features of the port, if any.
The NES is my happy place (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-dead-tomb/). Even though I was too young for it to really make an impact on my childhood, I?ve grown to love the simple graphics common on the system enforced by its hardware limitations. What I find weird about Adventures of Panzer is that the little characters look like they?re in a completely different resolution than the rest of the game, but they?re not, so maybe the pixel doubling is just a design decision. Weird.
The Adventures of Panzer: Legacy Collection releases on Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, and Switch on January 26, 2024. It?s worth noting that at $8.99, the collection is roughly $2 more than buying the two games (https://9panzer.itch.io/the-adventures-of-panzer) individually for PC on itch.io (https://9panzer.itch.io/the-adventures-of-panzer-2).
