Croc Devs “Will Have More To Say” About Other Games In The Series Later This Year

After being pushed out of 2024 to make sure it’s in the best possible state it can be before we play it, the Croc remaster finally has a release date: April 2, 2025. Even better, it might not be the only Croc revival we’re getting this year. Its developers have teased there’s news about some of the lesser-known games in the series coming in 2025.

Argonaut Games, the revived studio behind the original version of Croc and its 2025 remaster, is very active on social media, replying to pretty much every question fans of the series have since its release date was confirmed on Tuesday. That includes someone asking whether Argonaut has anything to report regarding the two Croc games that were released on the Game Boy Color in the early 2000s.

The Croc fan asked if there’s a chance the two GBC Croc games will ever be added to the Nintendo Switch Online Game Boy library. Argonaut wasn’t specific, but it did reveal more than you might expect. “We’ll have more to say about our plans for the Game Boy Color Croc games later this year,” was its response.

Who Remembers Croc On Game Boy Color?

Croc and Croc 2 were not the same games as the ones released on the original PlayStation, but there were similarities. While they kind of followed the same story, naturally, neither of them was in 3D. The first GBC Croc games was a 2D sidescroller, and then the Game Boy sequel was also two-dimensional but from a top-down perspective.

As for what Argonaut is teasing for the Croc spin-offs, as the fan suggests, the most likely scenario is that they show up in the NSO Game Boy library, potentially before the end of 2025 if Argonaut’s reply is anything to go by. While a remaster of the PS1 original is a game that can be sold, a repackaged two-pack of what are relatively unknown, reworked Game Boy ports probably won’t sell well as a standalone release.

Argonaut has already confirmed that, should the Croc remaster perform well enough, it will move forward with a remaster of Croc 2. It has even hinted that if there’s enough interest, it will finally complete the trilogy and release an all-new Croc game. There was supposed to be a third Croc game, but Argonaut’s closure in 2004 led to its cancellation. If you want more Croc, then you’re going to need to pre-order and buy the remaster of Legend of the Gobbos to make that happen.
