Myst 3D coming to the Nintendo 3DS in 2012

We’re not sure how many of our readers out there might remember the game Myst, but I certainly do remembering running in on my AST computer that was clocked at a meager 133MHz back in the day. The good news for those who do remember the game is that you will be able to relive the game once more in literal 3D as Hoplite Research will be bringing the adventure game over onto the Nintendo 3DS in 2012.

For those who are unfamiliar with the game, the game was originally released back in September of 1993, a good 18 years ago and is basically a first-person adventure game. The game itself was considered to be pretty “scenic” at that time and surprisingly rather immersive. The good news for those planning to relive the game or planning to give it a go, the Nintendo 3DS version of Myst will come with new landscapes along with the RIME Age that was not included in the original PC release.

We’re guessing with the Nintendo 3DS’ glasses-free 3D technology, the game should prove to be more immersive than ever. No word on how much the game will set you back, but if you’re looking forward to it, Hoplite Research has set a release date for the 27th of March 2012, so you may want to mark that down on your calendar.
