A new leak associated with the PlayStation 5 has revealed three new remasters of classic adventure games that are seemingly heading to the platform. Throughout this current console generation, remasters have become more common than ever before. In fact, Sony alone has already remastered titles such as The Last of Us Part II, Marvel's Spider-Man, and Uncharted 4 for PS5 in the past couple of years. Now, this trend seems to be continuing once again with a trio of games that previously launched on PS4.

Discovered by Gematsu, new listings for the remastered iterations of Full Throttle, Day of the Tentacle, and Grim Fandango have now been rated in Taiwan for PS5. Originally, these remasters all landed on PS4 (and PlayStation Vita) between 2015 and 2017. This marked the first time that any of these classic LucasArts adventure games had ever come to consoles. Now, it seems as though developer Double Fine Productions wants to ensure that they'll remain accessible in the years to come by porting them to the latest PlayStation hardware.

Perhaps the biggest question about Full Throttle, Day of the Tentacle, and Grim Fandango coming to PS5, though, is tied to the improvements that each will boast. After all, these are games that don't really need the power that the PS5 offers to look or run better as they're each stylized to look like games from the 1990s. As a result, there's no real reason to port this slate of games over other than to simply make them natively playable on the PS5. Regardless, ratings leaks like this prove to be accurate more often than not, so we should learn more about what is being planned with this re-release soon enough.
