Wasteland 30th Anniversary Bundle Combines First Two Games, Remaster & Music Tracks

Wasteland 2 is a turn based top down role-playing game, sequel to what many considered the godfather of post apocalyptic RPGs.

The bundle includes items from across the history of the series, along with two new items - a musical track by Mark Morgan, which represents the first publicly available new content from 2019’s Wasteland 3, and a currently in pre-production 30th anniversary remaster of the original Wasteland by Krome Studios (currently partnered with inXile on a similar remaster of The Bard’s Tale Trilogy).

Items in the Wasteland 30th Anniversary Edition Bundle include:

  • Wasteland 1The Original Classic
  • Wasteland 30th Anniversary Edition remaster (due early 2019)
  • Wasteland 2: Director's Cut
  • Digital Extras:
    • Wasteland 3 Music Track "Frozen Waste"
    • Wasteland 2 Novella: All Bad Things
    • Wasteland 2 Novella: The Earth Transformed Ghost Book One
    • Wasteland 2 Novella: Death Machines Ghost Book Two
    • Wasteland 2 Concept Art Book
    • Wasteland 2 Choir Songs EP
    • Wasteland 2 Original Soundtrack

The Wasteland 30th Anniversary Bundle can be found here.

This bundle will contain all the items listed above and be sold for $44.99, launching at 10% discount in celebration of the game’s anniversary. When Wasteland 30th Anniversary Edition is released, it will also be added to the libraries of customers who purchased the bundle at no additional cost.

“The original Wasteland is one of the games that I am most proud of and certainly one of the most influential,” said inXile CEO Brian Fargo. “Wasteland 2 helped launch an era of crowdfunding as a viable platform for game development and let us focus on making the kinds of games that we love to make and that our players want. With Wasteland 3, we’re continuing to develop this world we started in 1988 and we’re excited to provide the first taste of what we have in store for players.”

The signature item of this bundle is Wasteland 30th Anniversary Edition, a remastering of the first game that will feature updated graphics (which maintain the spirit of the original pixel art), run natively in current operating systems and at all current resolutions, and offer other quality of life features. This work is being done by Krome Studios, the team currently behind a similar remastering of The Bard’s Tale Trilogy.

The Wasteland 30th Anniversary Edition remaster is currently in pre-production, with an expected completion date of early 2019. Anyone who purchases the bundle prior to then will receive the game at no additional cost upon release.
