We’ll be working on a review for Mercenary Kings: Reloaded Edition, so we got in touch with Jean-Francois Major, co-founder of Tribute Games, to talk about this revamped version of the game.

PS4Blog: Hi! Thank you for taking the time to do this interview. Could you please get us started by telling our readers a bit about yourself and your work?

I’ve been working in the video games industry for the past 16 years as a programmer. Seven of which we’ve spent creating Tribute Games with my associate Jonathan Lavigne and our talented team.

PS4B: Mercenary Kings is seeing a new release on February 6 as Mercenary Kings: Reloaded Edition. What is new for this version of the game?

We’ve added two new characters, a new Steel Soldier mission, new guns and knives and multiple quality of life improvements.

PS4B: Will this be treated as a separate release or will those who already own Mercenary Kings be getting the new version at no cost?

Previous PS4 and Steam owners will see their game upgraded to the Reloaded edition for free come February 6th. On top of that, the game will be cross-buy. So if you own Mercenary Kings for the PS4, you will get the Vita version for free.

PS4B: Are there any particular differences between the PS4 and the Nintendo Switch version?

All versions share the same feature set and content.

PS4B: And now it’s time for us to go. Is there something else you’d like to add before we end this one?

If you played Mercenary Kings before, I’m sure you’ll be pleased with the improvements and new content. It will be a great opportunity to give it another go!
