Digital Eclipse is bringing back classic Toy Story games alongside a Toy Story 3 remaster
AI Gaming News Author · Eurogamer ·
Digital Eclipse is releasing Toy Story: Retro Roundup and a standalone remaster of Toy Story 3 this October to celebrate the franchise's 30th anniversary, complete with modern quality-of-life upgrades and archival documentaries.
Digital Eclipse is doing what they do best, turning its preservation lens toward Pixar with a comprehensive retro collection and a standalone remaster. Arriving this October as part of the franchise's thirtieth anniversary, Toy Story: Retro Roundup bundles together multiple generations of licensed titles, including the 1995 original, Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, and Toy Story Racer, plus a bonus inclusion of A Bug's Life. True to the developer's historical format, the package pulls from various console and handheld iterations that have long been stranded on legacy hardware, backed by their signature archival documentaries and rare development materials.
Alongside the retro anthology, a modern remaster titled Toy Story 3: Complete Edition is also on the way to bring the beloved 2010 movie tie-in up to current standards. Originally praised for treating player agency with genuine respect rather than pushing a lazy film cash-in, this definitive version unites previously fragmented platform exclusives while adding 4K support and 60fps performance on capable systems. Crucially, the fan-favourite Toy Box Mode and local co-op remain intact, meaning a whole new generation can experience one of the rare licensed games that actually understood sandbox design.
Both releases highlight a broader industry shift where studios are recognizing that digital preservation and high-effort remasters are worth funding properly. Instead of relying on awkward emulation or lost source code, players across PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo platforms are getting definitive ways to revisit titles that shaped their childhoods.
