Updated Combat, UI & Customisation
An upgraded hardware interface makes the original titles more accessible without losing the soul of the original gameplay.

Tactical Save States provide multiple slots to pause and continue different runs. Fine-tune your visuals, audio and gameplay settings across the entire collection with the Global Customisation options.

Quoting: pbI'm confused... why is it being published by Commodore, which has been dead since 1994, and not by Team17, who are still alive and kicking, and who are the original developers and publishers of these games?Commodore are actually back, somewhat. Back in 2025 a bunch of the trademarks / IP were acquired again, and now they're pushing into publishing and retro computer remakes.

Somewhat confusing. It would seem that we have a remake in Team17's Alien Breed Trilogy (External Link: You need to be logged in to view this.) and a remaster in Antstream's Alien Breed 35th Anniversary.
As a side note, the new Commodore has added a cellphone to its repertoire. One that uses Linux (Sailfish OS) instead of Android. It's designed for those that feel that smartphones are too smart.
