PaRappa the Rapper Remastered Coming in 2017, Free Demo Available Today [PSX 2016]

By Jonathan Leack

Sony has announced PaRappa the Rapper Remastered, exclusive to the PS4. Slated to be released in 2017, it will offer a modern revitalization of one of the original PlayStation's most beloved titles.

PaRappa the Rapper Remastered will support 4K on PS4 Pro, or 1080p on the regular PS4. Although gameplay will be nearly identical to the original, there will be some new input methods that utilize the DualShock 4's attributes.

Perhaps even more surprising than the announcement is that a free demo will be available on the PlayStation Store later today.

​You can view the trailer below.
