Almost a year to the day, we first reported on Apidya’ Special, a remaster of the Amiga classic from developer Team Apidya and publisher ININ Games. The game is finally ready to launch and will blast out on PlayStation, Switch, Xbox, and Steam on August 26th, 2026. There are also physical editions still up for pre-order for the PlayStation 5 and Switch. First released in 1992, Apidya has earned a devoted following through its insect-themed fantasy world, challenging difficulty, and a soundtrack that fans still talk about today.
Key Features in Apidya’ Special:
Authentic Remake: Completely rebuilt from scratch; no emulation.
Two Visual Modes: Seamlessly switch between HD widescreen or original home computer 4:3 presentation.
Exclusive Chris Hülsbeck OST: 2 CDs with the original and new studio versions of the iconic soundtrack, plus original Amiga recordings that helped define Apidya’s legendary audio experience.
Expanded Worlds: 5 diverse themed worlds (Meadow, Pond, Sewers, Cyber, Lair), up to 5 levels each, 20 unique bosses, and hidden special stages.
Fresh Surprises: Randomized in-game events like “Night Mode” with new enemy sprites.
Co-op Mode: Team up in the all-new co-op mode, where player two controls a fully featured bee with its own weapons.
