Bluepoint Games has established itself as one of the top studios in the industry when it comes to remastering and remaking older games for modern platforms. Its work on theShadow of the Colossusremakewas praised in particular, and fans are excited to see what’s next from the studio. Nothing official has been announced, but new rumors making the rounds suggest that it could be working on a remake or remaster of the PS2-eraJak and Daxtergames.
This rumor originates from 4chan, so fans should take it with a massive grain of salt. Even so, there have been legitimate video game leaks from 4chan, and so there is always of the off-chance that the “leaker” is telling the truth. In any case, the claim is that Bluepoint is working on a project calledJak and Daxter Re-Trilogyas a PlayStation 5 launch title, which will presumably be remastered or remade versions of the original threeJak and Daxtergames.

According to the leak,Jak and Daxter Re-Trilogywill be announced as part of theongoing Summer Game Fest events. Presumably, it would happen during Sony’s PS5 game reveal, itself expected to take place at some point in June. However, the ongoing coronavirus pandemic could certainly shift those plans, so fans shouldn’t be marking any dates on their calendars just yet.
The same leak says that Bluepoint is also working on aLegacy of Kainremake for the PS5as well. However, it should be noted thatJak and DaxterandLegacy of Kainaren’t the only games that Bluepoint has been rumored to be working on recent months.
Prior to theJak and DaxterandLegacy of Kainleak, it was rumored that Bluepoint Games was making aDemon’s Soulsremake for the PS5. The studio itself seems to have hinted as much, though other reports have indicated that it is making aLegend of Dragoonremakeinstead. Of course, it’s certainly within the realm of possibility that Bluepoint has multiple games in development, but the more likely scenario is that most, if not all, of these leaks are fake.
WhateverBluepointis working on, its history with Sony means that the game will likely be coming to the PS5. It’s just a question of what it is exactly.
Jak and Daxter Re-Trilogyis rumored to be in development for PS5.
