Review

The Gex Trilogy serves as a bittersweet nostalgia trip for longtime fans of the series while showcasing some dated gameplay mechanics and graphics. While the inclusion of quality-of-life updates and bonus features is commendable, it does not fully mask the flaws inherent within the original titles. Players seeking a fresh experience might find the remaster safe and lacking in ambition, but for those who cherish the quirky humor and unique charm of Gex, there’s enough here to enjoy once more.

Background information

Reviews have generally recognized the trilogy's nostalgic value while noting that it may not captivate new audiences. Players from the mascot era rejoice at the return of Gex's humor, but the consensus suggests that without a prior connection, many may find little incentive to engage with these remastered classics.
