Flashback 2 will fade to black in November 2023 on PS5, PS4

Flashback 2, the sequel to the legendary 1992 side-scroller, will target a November 2023 release on PlayStation platforms – and here’s your first look at the gameplay. Scheduled for release on both PS5 and PS4, the title retains the original visuals, but adds depth to the visuals. This means you can play in the background, so it’s like a hybrid of 2D and 3D gameplay.

In the form of the PS1’s Fade to Black, the Delphine Software smash hit has received a sequel before, though it’s still unclear how the new game will tie into the 32-bit era release. Series creator Paul Quisset has been enlisted to lead development, however, where he is working alongside the Microids teams in Paris and Lyon.

There will be a few physical Collector’s Editions available on PS5 and PS4, and here are the details:
