Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX – Alex Kidd in Miracle World remake gets a June 24th release date!

In 1987 Sega released the great side-scrolling platform game ‘ Alex Kidd ‘ for the Sega Master System console. Although it was first released in Japan in 1986 but internationally in 1987, it was one of the most well known games as it was also built into most Master System II’s. As such it came as no surprise to us, that when we mentioned it way back in 2018 way before IGN and other sites that this was game was being remade, it set our twitter feed alight with excited retro gaming retweets across the globe.

Fast forward to today and not only can we officially say, that the Alex Kidd In Miracle World remake aka DX is coming to PC on June 24th, but the game will have levels from the original title, brand new levels expanding the lore of Alex Kidd, new animations, graphical detail and gameplay improvements, improved boss fights and enemies, different modes for you to enjoy, and for those of you wanting to play in classical detail, there’s even a Retro mode taking us back to the glory days of the Master System!
