Interplay Announces ClayFighter Remaster

Interplay as announced it is remastering ClayFighter with the help of Drip Drop Games, and it is currently confirmed as a PC only title for release in 2016. Many of you may never have heard of ClayFighter, so here’s a quick history lesson. The original ClayFighter released on the SNES in 1993, and it was a 2D fighting game which had claymation style visuals. It received two sequels with the final one, ClayFighter 63â…“, releasing on the N64.

Since then not much has been done with the IP, but the current era is all about remasters. Interplay must want to reignite a fanbase for the game and maybe once again try and go toe to toe with other fighting games. There will be 20 characters including Bad Mr. Frosty 7 & Earthworm Jim, with each of them having a Claytality. There will also be 20 arenas to fight in, and ClayFighter will get new gameplay additions like double jumps, air dashes, and counters.

  1. Ahh Clayfighters. This takes me back to a good game of TSA Photoshop tennis a few years ago!

  2. It makes me feel old that I remember this from the SNES!

  3. 63 1/3 was one of those games that was so bad it was enjoyable! Odd choice of franchise to try and reinvigorate if you ask me.

    If Interplay are going to remaster a game, make it Redneck Rampage! I loved that game. Anyone else remember it??
