About DuckTales: Remastered

DuckTales: Remastered is a side-view platform adventure released on August 13, 2013, for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC, iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. Developed by Capcom and WayForward, and published by Disney Interactive and Capcom, it is part of the DuckTales series and the wider Disney and Donald Duck franchises. It is rated E for Everyone and PEGI 7.

The game is a single-player title that pairs platforming with adventure elements and carries a light, comedic tone with a family-friendly theme. Players guide Scrooge McDuck through side-scrolling levels, relying on his pogo jump and cane swing to move and fight.

The remaster reworks the look of the original 8-bit game with hand-drawn, animated sprites and redrawn backgrounds. Voice work comes from the Disney cast, including performers from the animated TV show, and the classic soundtrack has been given a modern arrangement. A dedicated tutorial level introduces the core moves, and a museum area tracks player stats and lets them compare progress through global leaderboards.
