Publisher Argonaut Games and developers Titanium Studios and Big Boat Interactive have announced the “Platinum Edition” update for Croc: Legend of the Gobbos. It is available now for PC via Steam, and will launch for existing platforms on October 16.
The update will roll out as a standard update for Xbox Series, Xbox One, Switch, and GOG; as the game’s first release on Steam; and as a new edition of the game for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, which existing owners can download and play separately as a free upgrade.
Here are the details:
So why the new name? Great question! When we initially launched the Croc: Legend of the Gobbos remaster, we didn’t include enough trophies to qualify for the Platinum trophy on PlayStation. And it’s not permitted to simply fix this with a patch. So we had to come up with a smarter solution: release a new version of the game with a comprehensive trophy set, including 16 new Trophies and the highly coveted Platinum Trophy.
And since we had our sleeves rolled up working on the Trophies, we decided to go all-in and add the equivalent 16 new Achievements to the Xbox and PC platforms, and also bring all the Achievements to the Switch as well, with its own in-game Achievement tracking screen!
But this isn’t just about trophies. Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Platinum Edition includes:
- A new time trial gameplay mode called Time Attack
- Over 25 new additions to the Crocipedia.
- The ability to toggle between different Croc Main Theme mixes in the main menu.
- A bunch of bug fixes were squashed. Ker-Splat!
- A handful of quality-of-life features and improvements.
Here’s how it’ll roll out:
- Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and GOG (PC) players will receive this update as standard.
- Steam (PC) players will be able to purchase the Platinum Edition of Croc: Legend of the Gobbos for the first time.
- PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 players will see it as a new edition of the game, which they can download and play separately.
This update is a testament to our dedication to the Croc community. We’ve listened to your feedback and are excited to bring this update to all Croc fans, including our PlayStation trophy hunters who have been eagerly awaiting the Platinum path.
