Why it matters

A remaster is defined as the process of altering and improving the sound quality or visual quality of previously produced audio, film, or video media [2]. Related terms in media re-processing include digital remastering and digital remaster [2]. For video game players, a next-gen remaster brings potential enhancements in visual graphics and audio performance. However, players' financial decisions will depend on whether existing game owners receive a free upgrade or must pay for a new release once official pricing is released.
