This Sega Master System Classic is Making a Comeback
A remake of the popular Sega Master System Classic, Alex Kidd in Miracle World, was recently announced as part of the ongoing Summer Game Fest. Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX is being developed by Merge Games and it was unveiled during IGN’s Summer of Gaming digital event. The original title came out in 1986 but in recent years, the series hasn’t gotten much love. Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX will be releasing in Q1 2021 on PC, Nintendo Switch, PS4 and Xbox One, with a potential next-gen port coming too considering when it’s releasing.
Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX is looking to be a faithful recreation of the classic platformer and Merge Games is doing more than just updating the visuals. This remake will also allow fans to play the title in the original Sega Master System version of the game for fans who want that true retro experience. Considering Alex Kidd in Miracle World was just the first of a series of titles, it’s possible that Merge Games will return to the franchise later if Alex Kid in Miracle World DX is a success.
Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX goes beyond simply recreating the original Sega Master System experience, the remake will include new stages, modes, alternate boss fights and a boss rush mode. The original title involved exploring 17 different stages while using Alex’s punching abilities to find coins and use them to unlock vehicles. Fans of the series can expect to see more than 17 stages with the new stages being brought to the title in the upcoming remake of the Sega Master System classic.
