Spleunker HD Deluxe is bringing the classic back, but with a new look and modes

Spelunker has been around the gaming landscape for a number of years and it will dig up a new release soon, as Spelunker HD Deluxe is bringing it back to Switch and PlayStation 4, complete with new graphics and more, thanks to ININ Games.

A variety of game modes and many different stages will provide players with a lot of challenges on their way to seek out the mystery that lies in the depths. All of the modes can be played as single player, but they are also supporting online multiplayer with up to six people and offline multiplayer with up to four people allowing the players to explore the caves together!

  • Adventure:
    Players can explore 100 stages by fighting and jumping their way through enemies and obstacles

  • Competition:
    The best cave explorer wins! In this mode, players can compete with their friends

  • Championship:
    The name says it all... This mode includes another 100 super-difficult, challenging stages that seek for real cave exploring experts

  • Endless Cave NEO:
    In this mode, players can compete and see how far they get in endless, randomly generated caves

Whilst exploring dark caves and avoiding getting beaten by the dangers that lurk in the depths, players can enjoy a fresh visual appeal with new 3D assets and a realistic cave atmosphere, accompanied by a catchy, memorable soundtrack. But those who prefer to keep it classic, will also get their money’s worth – the well-received “Classic Mode” that was also included in the PS3 version will still be available in Spelunker HD Deluxe. So retro fans can enjoy beautiful nostalgic pixel graphics and 8-bit sound for the original Spelunker experience like back in the early 80s.

While you can get the game digitally in Q3 of 2021, Strictly Limited Games are also bringing it to the world of the physical release for both PlayStation 4 and Switch in November or December, offering up either a standard release, or the below Collector’s Edition.
