A remaster of Vanquish has been leaked via Microsoft Store

Yesterday it was PlayStation and today its Xbox, a leaked listing for Vanquish on Xbox One appeared on the Microsoft store earlier, but was quickly pulled. Again, with The Game Awards 2019 happening next week, it appears that this might have been another premiere for the show.

All we know for sure is that the game will run at 60fps and supports 4K, with Sega doing the publishing and Platinum Games listed as the developer. Below was the description of the game, which is unlikely to change, but for now, take it with a grain of salt.

The hit sci-fi shooter returns. An overpopulated Earth suffocating under limited resources looks to Providence, the solar-powered space colony for support. When Providence is suddenly taken over by a mutinous group and its technology used to devastate cities, it’s up to a specially trained unit of space marines to reclaim the colony.

Equipped with BLADE, the experimental weapon system that can scan, copy, and save up to three existing weapons, space DARPA agent Sam Gideon must infiltrate Providence, defeat legions of future-tech foes, and disable the energy transmitter threatening life on Earth.

The game was created and directed by Shinji Mikami, the man behind Resident Evil and originally saw release back in 2010 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, with a PC port happening just two years ago. While not listed, for obvious reasons, the game is likely to come to PlayStation 4 as well, though Switch owners might not want to hold their breath.
