The upcomingDestroy All Humansremake is more than just a shiny new coat of paint. The developers have actually restored content to it that was cut out of the original release, withDestroy All Humansfans given their first glimpse of the lost mission called “The Wrong Stuff.”
As evident by the newDestroy All Humansteaser trailer, The Wrong Stuff mission sees Crypto’s human enemies attempt to reverse engineer his technology to create their very own flying saucer.Cryptowill have to infiltrate the Area 42 base, fight off some of the humans, and figure out exactly what they’ve managed to create. While this mission never made it to the final version of the originalDestroy All Humans, it was still acknowledged in the story, so it will definitely be interesting for longtime fans to see exactly how it all played out.

While theDestroy All HumansLost Mission isn’t a completely original level, it does show that the developers are more than willing to add new content for fans of the series to enjoy. If theDestroy All Humansremake is a success, hopefullyTHQ Nordicwill be convinced to move forward with a full-fledged sequel, though that remains to be seen.
So far, THQ Nordic has shown a willingness to revive the IPs its collected, with one of the most notable examples being theDarksidersseries. After remastering the originalDarksidersgames, THQ Nordic launchedDarksiders 3, as well asDarksiders Genesis. More recently, THQ Nordic released a remaster ofSpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom, which updated the PS2 classic for modern audiences.
However, theSpongeBob SquarePantsremasterwas met with mixed reviews, as some felt that the basic gameplay just didn’t age well. It’s possible thatDestroy All Humanscould suffer a similar fate. In fact, the original game actually received average reviews at the time of its release, so that wouldn’t be surprising at all. The game didn’t become a cult classic because of its critical reception, though; it did so thanks to its sense of humor and unique premise.
Whether or not theDestroy All Humansremakelives up to the hype remains to be seen, but with the game set to launch next week, fans won’t have to wait much longer to find out for sure.
Destroy All Humanslaunches July 28 for PC, PS4, Stadia, Switch, and Xbox One.
