A new trailer for the Gex Trilogy has been released, featuring all three console games developed by Crystal Dynamics. The collection includes Gex, Gex: Enter the Gecko, and Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko, starring the anthropomorphic gecko protagonist. Pre-orders are set to begin in autumn 2024 with availability on Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam.

Has this upcoming release piqued your interest?

I have never found the Gex series to be "exciting," even when it was new. Gex was always a shallow also-ran mascot in the time when everyone was trying to recapture that lightning in a bottle without understanding how it actually worked, and desperately trying to recreate what Sonic and Earthworm Jim and to a lesser extent Toejam and Earl had.

He was marginally less annoying than Bubsy. That's about all I can say about Gex.

If I really decide to play some sub-par 90's platforming stuffed with stilted and dated TV and movie references, my 3DO still works. Yes, really...
