As of December 10th, Montezuma’s Revenge – The 40th Anniversary Edition is now available for download on the Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and S, as well as the Microsoft Store. The porting of Montezuma’s Revenge to these platforms follows up on the game’s Steam release back in January. Remade from the ground up in 3D while maintaining the original title’s 2D gameplay, Montezuma’s Revenge allows the player to choose between the brother/sister pair of Pedro and Rosita in order to collect treasures in over a hundred chambers.
The Montezuma’s Revenge remake comes courtesy of Mission Criticial Studios and Handcrafted Mystical Games, who worked together with the developer Robert Jaeger to revamp his original 8-bit 1984 classic. Purportedly, this version of the game is based on Jaeger’s original concept, completing many ideas that had to be abandoned before the game’s original release. The ports come courtesy of Eastasiasoft Limited, an independent publisher with a license to release titles for console games.
The retail price for all versions of the 40th Anniversary Edition is $12.99. This version of the game with modern graphics should not be confused with the original title, which is for sale on Steam for $9.99, or the Director’s Cut edition, also for sale on $9.99, which contains Robert Jaeger’s preferred layouts in the same art style as the original title. The Deluxe Edition of Montezuma’s Revenge – 40th Anniversary Edition, which includes the Director’s Cut, currently retails on Steam for $19.48.
