Shantae Dev Announces The Mummy Demastered

Coming to consoles and PC.

By Jordan Sirani

WayForward, the studio behind the Shantae series, has announced The Mummy Demastered, a tie-in to Universal's monster movie reboot.

The Mummy Demastered is being made in direct partnership with Universal, according to WayForward on Twitter, and will be coming to unspecified consoles and PC. Alongside the announcement, the developer released a single screenshot, which shows off the game's "demastered" graphics and side-scrolling gameplay.

This won't be the first movie-based game WayForward has worked on. In 2015, the developer released Goosebumps: The Game shortly before Sony's Goosebumps movie hit theaters. WayForward has also created games based on Adventure Time, The Smurfs, and multiple Disney properties.

While WayForward didn't announce a release date for its latest game, the Mummy movie hits theaters tomorrow, June 9. To read our thoughts on Tom Cruise's latest film, check out IGN's The Mummy review.
