Lollipop Chainsaw RePoP to be known as remaster. Check details

The game design for the Lollipop Chainsaw RePoP remake has undergone a significant shift, and it is now being described as a remaster, according to Dragami Games. Yoshimi Yasuda, the company's president, took to Twitter to clarify the transformation.

Yasuda stated that Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP will not introduce any changes to the original story or aesthetics.

Initially unveiled in July 2022, Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP was intended to be a remake of the 2012 hack-and-slash action game. However, in August, Dragami Games announced a delay in its release until 2024.


So far, Dragami has revealed little about the remaster, including the platforms on which it will be available. At the start of the year, the studio provided an initial look at the main character, Juliet Starling.


The distinction between a remake and a remaster becomes particularly apparent when comparing titles like Metroid Prime Remastered and Red Dead Redemption.

In the case of Red Dead Redemption on the Switch, it essentially meets the baseline expectations for a re-release. The game maintains the same resolution but at a lower framerate, going from 60 FPS to 30 FPS.

In stark contrast, Metroid Prime Remastered is ironically named because it represents a full remake. The game appears to have been meticulously reprogrammed from the ground up, incorporating higher-resolution textures, improved lighting effects, enhanced sound quality, and additional features and options.
