After hiding in the shadows for months, Microsoft has suddenly dropped Phantom Dust Remastered on Xbox One and Windows 10.
The cult classic re-release is now available to download across Xbox One and Windows 10, and it won’t cost you a penny.
Xbox Head of Marketing Aaron Greenberg made the surprise announcement on Twitter last night, confirming that Phantom Dust was imminently on its way.

As expected, the remaster has received a number of tweaks and improvements for modern systems. It now operates at a 16:9 aspect ratio and 1080p resolution.
Microsoft first announced a sequel to Phantom Dust was in development at E3 2014 alongside this re-release. Since then, developer Darkside Studios has been shut down.
That being the case, this could be the only speck of Phantom Dust we get for a long, long time. A surprise appearance at E3 2017 definitely wouldn’t go amiss, though.
