UPDATE 08/12/23: The remake of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons was officially announced at this evening's Game Awards.
Word of this remake leaked earlier this week, but now it has been confirmed with a new and fantastical trailer (see below).
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake will launch next year, on 28th February. It will be available across PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
The original story continues below.
ORIGINAL 06/12/23: It looks like a remake of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is on the cards.
The news originates from billbil-kun, who has a proven track record of being accurate with this type of information. According to the leaker, the game will be published by 505, as the original was in 2013.
Since Bilbilkun's claim, where they suggested we may get an announcement at tomorrow's Game Awards, fellow video game focused account Idle Sloth noted that a brothersthegame website now has a countdown on its page.
"Hey we are cooking it up!" this page proclaims, before stating it is only a few hours away from its "big launch".
At the time of writing, the countdown had just less than eight hours left on the clock - pointing to some kind of update or announcement around midnight UK time. We will keep you posted.

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is a charming and rather emotional fairy tale from Swedish film director Josef Fares (whose name you may recognise from that The Game Awards moment, where he let the world know his opinions on the Academy Awards). It follows the story of two siblings as they set out on a quest to find a cure for their father's mysterious affliction by finding the "Water of Life".
In Eurogamer's Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons 2013 review, Dan Whitehead called it a "game of moments".
"... moments of quiet beauty, moments of joyful levity, moments of cloying dread. There's one moment that stands out above all the others, though. It's one of those moments, the ones you'll remember in years to come."
