Cult Classic Shooter ‘Kingpin’ Being Remastered as ‘Kingpin: Reloaded’; Releasing Later This Year For PC, Consoles

Horror

Time to dig into the vault again, as 3D Realms and Interplay with developer Slipgate Ironworks have pulled out a dirty classic in the form of 1999’s Kingpin: Life of Crime. The latest cult classic first-person shooter to be given a remaster, Kingpin: Reloaded will arrive on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch sometime in 2020.

The game will feature re-balanced and revamped gameplay, a new quest system, ultrawide and 4K support, “Classic” and “Enhanced” modes and more. You can also check out the game on its new official site.

Originally released in 1999, Kingpin utilized a modified version of the Quake 2 engine. The game is noteworthy for its profanity-filled dialogue (which at times undercut the edgy tone) and the use of area-specific damage and deformable skin for each character model.
