Gearbox is looking to bring PC gamers back to a nostalgic state of bliss with today's announcement from PAX South. Relic's classic strategy franchise, Homeworld, is getting fully remastered with the Homeworld Remastered Collection.

The collection will include Homeworld and Homeworld 2, both fully updated for modern operating systems. This includes new fully-rendered graphics, as well as new voice recordings from the games' original casts. Those that like their space strategy the old-school way will also receive Homeworld Classic and Homeworld 2 Classic. Beyond bringing back these two PC favorites, Gearbox is also looking to add multiplayer to Homeworld Remastered. With that in mind, the package will also include the Steam Multiplayer Beta.

The Homeworld Remastered Collection will arrive on PC on February 25.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
