During a Q&A attended by TechRadar Gaming, following an exclusive
presentation at Gamescom, experience director Jeff Adams and Flying Wild Hog creative director Micha Kuk discussed how the game was built from the ground up using Unreal Engine 5 and the game's modern features the developers were able to implement. Legacy of Atlantis won't be a simple remake or remaster of the classic 1996 game, but a "reimagining" for current-gen platforms, which means all-new upgrades and features that weren't available in the original.

Among these are three difficulty levels across three core aspects of the
game: combat, puzzles, and traversal; players will be able to individually scale each setting to their preference, giving them more control over their experience.

"With difficulty levels, we have prepared it in a way that I'm pretty sure everyone can set it for their own pleasure," Kuk said.
