Written by Brandon Hofer on September 27, 2022

News: The brick-breaking game with some unique mechanics is getting a remastered version on current consoles and PC.

PikPok has revealed Shatter Remastered Deluxe, the definitive version of the game that redefined the brick-breaking genre, supported in development by Ukraine-based Beatshapers. In Shatter, you will discover a truly immersive sensory experience — accompanied by an award-winning electronic soundtrack in 5.1 surround sound from artist Module. The gorgeous 4K graphics present the 3D worlds of Shatter in incredible high definition, making them more dazzling than ever before.

You will have to demolish your way through ten challenging worlds and nine intense bosses, using the ‘Suck and Blow’ mechanic to manipulate the ball in your favor, destroy bricks, and rack up incredible high scores. You will then have to utilize special power-ups like the “Unstoppaball” and “Maneuveraball” to defy physics, sending the ball in tight curves or charging straight through blocks to shatter anything in your path. Don’t forget to gather shards to charge up power before unleashing the unstoppable onslaught of your special attack, Shardstorm.

Shatter will feature four unique game modes: Story, Endless, Boss Rush, and Time Attack. You can challenge your friends with local co-op in Endless Co-op Multiplayer and Time Attack Co-op Multiplayer or tackle the global leaderboard to claim your place in Shatter history.

“When it was first released in 2009, the original Shatter flipped the brick-breaking genre on its head,” said Mario Wynands, CEO, PikPok. “We’re thrilled to bring this action-packed title to console and Steam players in a completely remastered package, featuring beautiful 4K visuals, enhanced VFX, and an upgraded 5.1 soundtrack. Revisiting and updating this classic has been a delight as we also work on other exciting unannounced new projects behind the scenes.”

Shatter Remastered Deluxe will launch for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows PC, macOS, and Steam Deck via Steam on November 2, 2022, for $9.99 USD. It features Arabic, Chinese (Traditional & Simplified), Croatian, Czech, Dutch, Danish, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Portugal), Portuguese (Brazilian), Romanian, Russian, Spanish (Spain), Spanish (Mexican/Latin American), Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese language support.
