One of the most impressive platformers that ever came out on the NES was Gimmick! – aka Mr. Gimmick in some territories. The 1992 classic is now being made available on modern systems by way of a new Special Edition, courtesy of Bitwave Games.

New features include quick save states, rewinding, achievements, art & music galleries, online rankings, and a speedrun mode.

Gimmick!: Special Edition will be released July 6th on PC, PS4, and Nintendo Switch. Physical editions are promised at a later date. Check out the trailer below.
