The talented folks over at AmstradGGP released the final trailer for their upcoming conversion of the obscure 1989 arcade game Toki on April the 1st via their YouTube channel. Originally created by Japanese developer Tad Corporation, this port to the Amstrad CPC is far from an April Fool’s joke and looks very impressive indeed.

The trailer reveals more of the games’ colourful levels, including some huge bosses, but perhaps the most impressive thing on display here is the new faster, smoother scrolling that’s been implemented since last year.

AmstradGGP’s post on Twitter revealing the trailer featured the hashtag #cpcretrodev and the words “See you October”, so I think it’s a safe bet that we will finally get our hands on Toki as part of the annual CPCRetroDev competition later this year. I can’t wait!
