Blast from the Past: MDK2 HD Announced

More old school fun is being given the HD treatment with today's announcement that MDK is getting a refresh to create MDK2 HD:

MDK2 HD. Enough said! Or… maybe not. The fine chaps at Interplay Entertainment Corp. and Overhaul Games are pleased to announce the impending launch of MDK2 HD, bringing Interplay’s wacky action-adventure to a new generation of gamers. With a visual overhaul that would make a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon wail with jealousy, as well as a wide range of gameplay tweaks and reworked audio, MDK 2 HD will launch exclusively via Beamdog.com in September for just $14.99.

MDK2 HD follows the antics of loveable janitor Kurt Hectic, mad-scientist-type Doc Hawkins and the gun-toting, six-legged, potty-trained mechanical dog, Max, as they attempt to thwart yet another alien invasion of Earth. Players experience unique gameplay as each of the three characters, progressing through 10 wildly varied levels in this galaxy and beyond!

For now it looks like the game will be exclusive to Beamdog, another digital download system for purchasing games online.

Some screenshots and a little more info is available on our game page.

yeh, I would rather see the original redone as well :( but still, I'll prolly give this a crack at some point (...assuming this Yet Another Download System doesn't have dirty DRM and they do sales :)

I like the Kirk Hectic Character he was like a kick arse version of Forrest Gump with an Uzi packing Dog.

I still have this in my old pile of games on disc along with NOLF2, Risk and a few others that i havent gotten rid of over time. runs fine on modern machines and even looks ok IMO.
